Notes
- *Refrigerate the leftovers in an air tight container for up to 5-7 days.
- *I made this recipe with fresh chicken wings but you can make this recipe with frozen chicken wings as well. If you use frozen, add 3 additional minutes to the cook time in this recipe.
- *If you like excess sauce on your wings, brush on more buffalo sauce on the wings when you broil them!
