Ingredients
- 2 pounds wings wing and drumettes
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher or sea salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon buffalo sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Pat the wings dry and add them to a large mixing bowl.
- Season the wings with salt and pepper and toss to coat.
- Place the wings on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer.
- Bake the wings in the oven for 30-35 minutes. The internal temperature needs to be 165°F and the outside crispy.
- While the wings are cooking, start making the sauce. Start by adding the butter to a saucepan over medium heat until it's melted. Be sure not to brown the butter.
- Add the garlic, lemon juice, and buffalo sauce to the sauce pan with the butter.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Remove the sauce from the heat.
- Add the cooked wings to a clean mixing bowl and pour the sauce over them. Toss to combine until they are fully coated.

Notes
- A wire rack is not necessary for these wings.
- If you want your wings extra garlicky, season them with garlic powder while you're adding the salt and pepper.
