Baked chicken wings that are dripping with a homemade sauce that is really a combination of classic Buffalo sauce with cheddar cheese that has been melted through, and you know what? It’s pretty mind blowing. Oh baby! There is a certain wing joint called “Wild Wing Cafe” that we like to visit when we’re traveling through the southern U.S., and they offer a version of Jalapeno-Cheddar Chicken Wings on their menu. It’s one of the sauces I order every time because I LOVE the flavor. This jalapeno-cheddar sauce is similar. They aren’t overly hot, but that’s OK. I don’t need my taste buds tingling EVERY single time I eat hot wings. Don’t get me wrong, you’ll get some tongue tingling with this recipe, depending on how generous you are with the jalapeno and the chili flakes, but the heat won’t jump out at you. What we’re doing here is focusing on the flavor of the chicken wings themselves, as well as the combination of that tangy Buffalo sauce and the cheddar cheese. SO. GOOD. I’ve decided to BAKE these chicken wings for this recipe, though you CAN fry them up if you’d prefer. I find myself baking far more often then frying chicken wings because of the oil. It’s just my preference, typically, at home. Let’s talk about that crispiness, shall we? You can see the crispiness when you take them out of the oven. You can feel the crispy dryness on the skin. It is awesome! These are GREAT for a satisfying weeknight meal, or make them for your next party. Game Day Recipes, anyone? This will be a sure hit! Everyone loves chicken wings! Need more?
