Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

Roast the chicken wings

Heat the oven to 450°F.

Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel; season generously with salt and pepper.

On a sheet pan, toss the chicken wings with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Spread in an even layer and roast, flipping once halfway through, until the skin is browned and the wings are cooked through, 30 to 35 minutes.
While the wings roast, prepare the celery, carrots, and cayenne pepper sauce.

Prep the celery and carrots

Trim the ends from the celery; cut the celery in half lengthwise, then crosswise into 2-inch lengths.
Scrub or peel the carrots and trim the ends; cut the carrots lengthwise into quarters, then crosswise into 2-inch lengths.

Warm the cayenne pepper sauce

In a small sauce pot over medium heat, add the butter and cayenne pepper sauce and heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted and incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.

Finish the chicken wings

In a large bowl, working in batches if needed, toss together the chicken wings and cayenne pepper sauce, coating the wings completely. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the chicken wings to a serving bowl and arrange the celery, carrots, and tomatoes alongside. Serve the ranch dressing on the side for dipping.

Chef's Tip

If you have a convection oven, heat it to 425°F with the fan on and place the wings on a wire rack on a sheet pan so the hot air can circulate around them for even cooking (and you don’t need to flip them). If you don’t have a convection oven or a wire rack, cooking the wings right on the sheet pan works well; just make sure to flip the wings once while cooking so every part is exposed to the direct heat.
