Instructions

Pat the chicken wings dry using a paper towel. Preheat the oven to 450˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil, placing a wire rack on top.
Mix together the baking powder, sea salt, and garlic powder in a bowl, then sprinkle this mixture over the chicken wings, ensuring they are well coated. Arrange the wings on the prepared wire rack.
Bake the wings for 25 minutes, then flip them over and bake for an additional 25 minutes or until they are crisp and thoroughly cooked.
In a separate medium bowl, combine the melted butter, hot sauce, and sugar. Once the wings are done, transfer them to a bowl and drizzle the sauce over them, tossing to coat. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.

Notes

For extra crispiness, ensure the wings are dried thoroughly before seasoning.
Feel free to adjust the hot sauce amount to match your heat preference.
These wings can be served with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing for a classic pairing.
