So my timing on this post is probably horrible because if you’re like me (and I’m betting many of your are, at least in this respect!), you’ve probably eaten too much over the last few months and you’re still regretting that cake/chocolate/mousse you had on Valentine’s Day . . . so chicken wings are probably at the way bottom of your must-make-soon list.
Fortunately, these buffalo wings are significantly less fatening than the typical wings because these are baked! And really, really good. Trust me, if you’re willing to spend the time to make them, you may never go back to deep-frying wings (and let’s be honest, who wants to deep fry at home anyway!?!?).
I first learned of this possibility while watching one of my favorite food shows, Alton Brown’s Good Eats. When he broke out a steaming basked to steam the wings before baking them, I thought he was nuts, but then I read the reviews on the recipe page on the Food Network website and realized he must be onto something. So for Super Bowl Sunday, I made these for us and our skeptical friend who came over to watch the game with Adam (no, I did not watch), and even he had to admit these were good.
