I really wanted to make buffalo hot wings, but I couldn’t find any packages of chicken wings at the store – so I bought drumsticks. You get more meat on them and they are just as tasty to eat. And I buffaloed them! This recipe is so easy – just five ingredients!
Here’s How to Make Buffalo Legs:
Preheat the oven to 350° –
Place the chicken in a ziplock with the Frank’s buffalo wing sauce and the olive oil. Let it marinate for 12 hours or overnight.
Using a large casserole dish, place the legs in a single layer. Bake for about 30 minutes.
Add the blue cheese crumbles on the top, trying to keep them on the legs and not falling into the pan.
Return to the oven and bake an additional 30 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing to dip.
