Buffalo Chicken Wings with Homemade Ranch Dip 🍗

Buffalo Chicken Wings with Homemade Ranch Dip 🍗🧡🏈 Save and share this easy recipe for your next game day! I make them in the air fryer but also gave instructions for using a conventional oven below - hope you enjoy!

Wings:
2 pounds chicken wing flats and drumettes, pat dry
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder

Wing Sauce:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
⅓ cup Original Red Hot Sauce
1 teaspoons maple syrup or brown sugar
Pinch of salt

Ranch Dipping Sauce:
½ cup sour cream
⅓ cup mayonnaise (I use @bestfoodsmayonnaise )
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1 clove garlic, grated
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice ( I love @wonderfulseedlesslemons 🍋)
2 teaspoons chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon chopped fresh dill
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

Using my favorite @cuisinart Air Fryer 🔥 paired this recipe with a @peroniusa 🍻

Method:
1. Using a paper towel, pat the wings dry on all sides.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken wings, salt, garlic powder and onion powder. Toss to thoroughly coat.
3. Place the seasoned wings onto the air fryer basket, being careful not to crowd them too closely together. Air fry the wings at 400 degrees for approximately 20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
For a conventional oven, bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 minutes, flipping halfway through. (TIP: Using a wire rack will help achieve crispiness and mimic an airfryer.)
4. Meanwhile, in a small mixing bowl, add all of the ranch dipping sauce ingredients, stir to combine and set aside.
5. In a separate mixing bowl, combine the unsalted butter, hot sauce, maple syrup and salt. Once the wings are done, add them into the bowl and toss to combine until thoroughly coated.
6. Serve the wings alongside the homemade ranch dipping sauce and enjoy!

It’s time for one of my favorite salad recipes!

It’s time for one of my favorite salad recipes! 🥬🍂🥂 Full recipe below and also linked in my bio. Hope you enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 bunch kale, washed and finely chopped
2 cups cooked quinoa
2 tbsp. EVOO, divided
1 ½ cups butternut squash, diced (approximately half of 1 small butternut squash)
1 red bell pepper, diced
1 large or 2 small peaches, diced (I love @peaches.la_ )
1 cup pomegranate seeds
½ cup pepitas
½ cup slivered almonds
Flaky sea salt to taste

Dressing:
¼ cup EVOO
2 tbsp. white balsamic vinaigrette
Juice of 1 lemon
1 tbsp. Honey or maple syrup
Salt & pepper to taste

1. In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp. olive oil. Add butternut squash and saute for 8-10 minutes (if pieces are a bit larger increase time accordingly and stir occasionally until tender). Then, add bell pepper and saute for 2-3 minutes stirring occasionally. Turn heat off and set aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, add kale, 1 tbsp. Olive oil, and flaky sea salt to taste. Massage with hands to tenderize.
3. For the dressing: In a measuring cup or small bowl, add white balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Stream in olive oil while whisking constantly to emulsify.
4. To the massaged kale, add quinoa, butternut squash bell pepper mixture, peaches, pomegranate seeds, pepitas, and slivered almonds. Drizzle dressing overtop and toss to combine. Serve and enjoy!

Tips: Once peaches are out of season, sub apples - they’re delicious in this!
It keeps in the fridge for 3-4 days but will become a bit softer as the days go on. This is one of those salads that can taste even better the next day!

A little chaotic and a lot delicious 🤣🍕Quickly threw together my Hot Honey Prosciutto Pizza thanks to my new @gozney x @hedleyandbennett Arc XL pizza oven! This is one of our favorite (and most nostalgic) flavor combos on pizza. We first shared it in 2020 and it was actually one of our first recipe reels. It’s inspired by a pizza we tried at Birba in Palm Springs many years ago 🍯 Sweet, spicy, and so delicious! Can’t wait to make some more pizzas in this beautiful oven! You have to try this one 💕
