- 1/4 cup franks original red hot sauce

Instructions
- Pat the chicken wings dry with a paper towel before beginning.
- Preheat the oven to 450˚F. Prepare a rimmed baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Mix the baking powder, salt, and garlic powder in a bowl, then sprinkle this mixture over the chicken, tossing to coat evenly. Set the chicken on the wire rack.

Notes
Using aluminum-free baking powder helps achieve a great crispiness.
For extra flavor, let the chicken marinate in the spice mix for a few hours before baking.
