Instructions

Pat the chicken wings dry using a paper towel.
Preheat the oven to 450˚F and line a rimmed baking sheet with foil; place a wire rack over the pan.
In a bowl, mix baking powder, salt, and garlic powder, then sprinkle over the chicken wings and toss to coat.
Arrange the coated chicken wings on the prepared wire rack.
Bake for 25 minutes, then flip the wings and bake for an additional 25 minutes or until crisp and fully cooked.
In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, hot sauce, and sugar.
Remove the chicken from the oven, transfer it to a bowl, drizzle the sauce over the wings, and toss to coat evenly.

Notes

For a hotter wing, increase the amount of hot sauce.
Ensure wings are well dried to achieve maximum crispiness during baking.
Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing for a classic touch.
