Hot Wings

Kevin is a great cook...in fact right now he is making my favorite Filipino dish (that's a separate post). I worked last night and Kevin and I decided to have a date night in when I got home. He made some hot wings and we watched a movie (Just Friends...he thinks Mila Kunis is hot and I've been in love with Justin Timberlake since *NSync got together in the late 90s - perfect movie, yes?!?). The last time we went out for wings at our favorite wing place (Buffalo Wild Wings) we ended up spending tons of money! These wings are easy to make (ok really easy since I didn't have to lift a finger!) and cheap! They are spicy and yummy. When Kevin saw me lean over to take a pic, he said he tried to take pics as he went so I could blog about it (how thoughtful!!!), but it got to be too much (boo!). lol Anyway, here's how hubby makes his hot wings:

Gather it:
2 packages of chicken (ours come 10 in a package and we get all drumsticks)
about half a bottle of the 17.5 oz Texas Pete Buffalo Wing Sauce or your favorite sauce
1 Tbsp black pepper
1 Tbsp salt
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp dried parsley
1 Tbsp butter

Cook it:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degress. Meanwhile, combine pepper, salt, garlic, and parsley in a small bowl.

2. Place chicken on a baking sheet (line with foil for easy clean up) and sprinkle with spice mixture.

3. Bake chicken for 45 minutes. Flip chicken once half way through cooking time to evenly brown it.

4. Melt butter in a medium sized bowl and add 1/2 a bottle of buffalo sauce. Toss wings in butter/buffalo wing sauce mixture.

Serve with carrots and celery. We also had ours with curly fries - date night calls for special fries! lol We also had ranch (for Kevin) and blue cheese (for me) for dipping.

Hope you guys like it! Enjoy!
