Super Bowl Sunday is all about the food and the commercials, right? Ranch Chipotle Chicken Wings are a win – no matter who you are cheering for on Super Bowl Sunday. 

There’s something that makes me love a food even more when it is completely socially acceptable, if not expected, for you to eat with your fingers. Who’s with me? And what football party is complete without wings? Not any that I attend.

When I saw this recipe for Ranch Chipotle Chicken Wings in my latest Food Network Magazine, I knew it wouldn’t be long before they were on our table. And let me tell you, they were every bit as good as I thought they would be. Juicy, crisp and flavorful, these wings are your sure fire ticket to a great party, not matter who is on the field. And the fact that they are baked, not fried, is just an added bonus.

When you pull these beauties out of the oven on game day, your friends will be instant fans of them (and you for sharing the goodness). Finger. Lickin’. Good. The sauce you serve with the wings is pretty much the bomb. Smoky chipotle peppers are paired with ranch seasoning gives the sauce just the right amount of heat. And when combined with a pile of these Crispy Oven Baked Ranch Chicken Wings? Well, you’re gonna have to fight me for them. And it may not be pretty. So let’s play it safe and make a double batch – Deal?
