Preparation
Season chicken wings with salt and pepper at least 8 hours before serving and refrigerate until ready to cook. Preheat broiler. Place wings on a rack over top of a shallow pan or on a broiler pan. Broil for 20 to 30 minutes, turning frequently, or until crisp and cooked through. Meanwhile, melt butter in a small pan over medium low heat. Stir in hot sauce and cayenne pepper to taste. If desired, add 1 tsp. cornstarch or 1 to 2 tsp. rice flour and cook for a few minutes until sauce thickens. Remove wings from oven and dip each wing into sauce, shaking off excess. Place wings back on baking pan, reduce oven temperature to 250°F and bake wings for another 15 minutes to set sauce.
