Ingredients

• Hot Honey Sauce:
• 1/3 cup Bare Hot Honey
• 2 Tbsp soy sauce or liquid aminos
• 1 Tbsp butter
• Wings:
• 12 chicken wings, tips removed, flats and drumettes separated. Approx. 3 lbs.
• 1 Tbsp sunflower oil, or other neutral flavored oil
• 1 tsp hot paprika (use sweet paprika for less heat, or cayenne pepper for even hotter wings.)
• 1 tsp sea salt
• ½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
• ½ tsp granulated garlic
• Cilanto-Ranch Dressing:
• ¼ cup Organic Valley sour cream
• ¼ cup organic plain yogurt
• 1 Tbsp minced fresh parsley
• 1 Tbsp minced fresh cilantro
• 1 scallion thinly sliced
• Zest of 1 organic lime
• ¼ tsp sea salt
• ¼ tsp fresh ground black pepper

Instructions

To make sauce, combine hot honey sauce ingredients in a small sauce pan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, whisking to prevent scorching, then remove from heat.

For wings, save wing tips for making stock. Preheat oven to 415°. Line 1 large, or two smaller rimmed baking sheets with foil. Set a wire rack inside each of the baking sheets. In a large bowl, combine the wings, oil, and seasonings; toss to coat. Spread wings out on the wire racks in a single layer. Bake until cooked fully and skin is crispy, approximately 45 minutes.

Combine the cooked chicken wings and the Hot Honey sauce in a large bowl; toss to coat. Spread coated wings out on wire rack in a single layer and return to the oven. Bake until Hot Honey glaze is glossy and caramelized, 5-8 minutes. Toss wings with remaining sauce.

Combine all of the cilantro-ranch dressing ingredients, serve with wings.
