Ingredients

  • 2 pounds chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons arrowroot powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 0.5 cup hot sauce (Paleo-friendly)
  • 0.25 cup ghee

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with olive oil, ensuring each wing is evenly coated.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the arrowroot powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.

Step 4

Sprinkle the spice mix over the wings, tossing them until they are well-coated with the seasoning and arrowroot powder mixture.

Step 5

Arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they don't touch each other for even cooking.

Step 6

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping them halfway through, until they are browned and crispy.

Step 7

While the wings are baking, prepare the buffalo sauce by melting ghee in a small saucepan over low heat.

Step 8

Add the hot sauce to the melted ghee, stirring until well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 9

Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over them, tossing to coat evenly.

Step 10

Serve hot with your choice of Paleo-friendly dipping sauce or vegetables like celery and carrots.
