Easy Baked Ranch Chicken Wings

To Bake Crispy Wings:

1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
2. Line two large baking sheets (with a large rim) with parchment paper or foil.
3. Set a wire rack (preferably a nonstick rack, or lightly greased) over baking sheets.
4. Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels.
5. Divide wings between wire racks and spread out in a single layer.
6. Bake wings until cooked through and skin is crispy, 45–50 minutes.
7. For extra crunch, broil under broiler on high for 2-3 minutes per side - watch CAREFULLY to make sure wings don't burn or over-crisp.

For the Sauce:

1. In a small sauce pot, melt butter until foamy.
2. Add ranch seasoning packet, and whisk vigorously until combined.
3. Remove from heat (or turn heat to low) and whisk in all other ingredients.
4. Add wings to a large mixing bowl.
5. Toss with ranch sauce to coat evenly.
