Buffalo Chicken Wings

• Are you ever craving messy greasy hot and tangy wings?!  I have been wanting them and even in the rain they are easy to make right in the oven!  Follow this tasty recipe if you want to try out some good wings this football season! 
• 
  
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon liquid smoke
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 20 chicken wings
• 1/2 cup melted butter
• 1/2 cup franks red hot

Directions:

1. Lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the flour, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt into a resealable plastic bag, and shake to mix.   Toss the wings with the liquid smoke, then add the chicken wings into the bag with flour, seal, and toss until well coated with the flour mixture. Place the wings onto the prepared baking sheet, and place into the refrigerator. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C)
3. Whisk together the melted butter and hot sauce in a small bowl. Dip the wings into the butter mixture, and place back on the baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until the chicken is no longer pink in the center, and crispy on the outside, about 45 minutes. Turn the wings over halfway during cooking so they cook evenly.
