The Best Oven-fried Chicken Wings
  1. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and set a wire rack inside.

  2. Carefully dry chicken wings with paper towels.

  3. In a large bowl, combine wings with baking powder and salt and toss until thoroughly and evenly coated.

  4. Place on rack, leaving a slight space between each wing. Repeat with remaining 2 batches of wings.

  5. Place baking sheet with wings in refrigerator and allow to rest, uncovered, at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.

  6. Adjust oven rack to upper-middle position and preheat oven to 450°F (230°C).

  7. Add chicken wings and cook for 20 minutes.

  8. Flip wings and continue to cook until crisp and golden brown, 15 to 30 minutes longer, flipping a few more times towards the end.

  9. Meanwhile, combine butter and hot sauce in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, whisking until combined.

  10. Transfer wings to a large bowl, add sauce, and toss to thoroughly coat.

  11. Serve wings immediately with blue cheese dressing and celery sticks.
