  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp paprika powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
  • 1 tbsp honey (optional, for a touch of sweetness)
  • Ranch Dip

Ranch Dip

  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped
  • 1 tsp dried dill or dill seeds
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Instructions
 

To make the ranch dressing :

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the mayonnaise and sour cream. Stir until well blended and smooth.
  • Add the fresh parsley, chives, dried dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Mix well to incorporate all the ingredients.
  • Taste the ranch dressing and adjust the seasoning according to your preference. You can add more herbs, salt, or lemon juice to suit your taste.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
  • You can garnish it with additional fresh herbs if desired.

For the buffalo wings :

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bake the chicken on the lowest oven rack 40 minutes or until crispy, turning once.
  • In a small saucepan over low heat, mix together butter, honey, hot sauce, flour, salt, paprika, black pepper, and garlic powder for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
  • Pour the hot sauce mixture into a large bowl and set aside.
  • Once the wings are cooked and cooled, toss them in the buffalo sauce until they are well coated. Alternatively, you can brush the sauce onto the wings.
  • Serve the buffalo wings with celery sticks, carrots and ranch dressing on the side.
