ingredients
20 chicken wings
1 cup Italian salad dressing
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup hot sauce
1/2 cup barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
directions
Remove and discard the tips from the wings. Cut the wings at the joint to separate into two pieces.
In a zip-top bag or bowl, combine the wings and Italian dressing. Mix well. Place in the refrigerator and let marinate for 6-8 hours.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Combine the melted butter, hot sauce, barbecue sauce, chili powder, and cayenne in a large bowl.
Drain the marinade from the wings and add the wings to the barbecue sauce mixture. Stir well to coat the wings completely in the sauce. Using a slotted spoon or tongs, transfer the wings to a large baking dish (you don't want to crowd the wings too much).
Place the wings in the oven and bake at 350 degrees F for 30 minutes or until done, turning 2-3 times during the cook time.
If desired, turn the oven to broil and let cook for 5 minutes to crisp the wings.
Transfer the wings to a serving plate. Serve with blue cheese dressing, ranch dip, or barbecue sauce and celery sticks.

These wings were very tasty! They aren't as hot as you would think given the ingredients, they are zesty but not spicy.
