• Fry Instead of Bake: For extra crispy wings, you can fry them instead of baking. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot and fry the wings until golden brown.
• Serve with Dipping Sauce: Pair the wings with a cooling dipping sauce, such as ranch or blue cheese dressing, to balance the heat.

Storage Instructions

Store any leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
