This homemade version tastes like the real deal, but doesn't make you feel bad after eating it. A perfect summer party food! Extra delicious with my ranch dressing.

Ingredients
- chicken wings and/or drumsticks (the sauce below makes enough for about 8 of each, if you aren’t super saucy)
- olive oil
- salt
- pepper
- 2/3 c homemade hot sauce (or store-bought, like Frank’s)
- 1/2 c salted butter
- 1/4 – 1/2 c salt (if needed)
- 1/4 tsp roasted garlic granules (1/8 tsp garlic powder, if you can’t find)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450 F.
- Place chicken wings and drumsticks in a glass or metal roasting pan. Coat all chicken with olive oil (sparingly), then sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Roast at 450 F for 25 minutes. Without removing chicken, reduce oven temperature to 350 F and bake for another 25 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 250 F and continue baking for another 20 minutes. Chicken is done!
- While chicken is roasting, melt butter in a saucepan. Add hot sauce and remaining ingredients. Heat until slightly thickened.
- When chicken is finished roasting at 250, remove from oven and turn heat back up to 350 F.
- Spoon sauce over chicken and spread to coat all sides.
- Bake chicken at 350 F for another 10 minutes.
