Paleo Chicken Wings

This recipe takes some planning since the wings need to be refrigerated prior to baking to ensure a nice crust. The original recipe calls for deep frying, which is a land I prefer not to venture into. I baked mine and liked the crispy crust that resulted. For you purists, you can simply dip these wings in hot sauce or Paleo ranch dressing. I like my sauce mixed with grass-fed butter. Serve with the traditional accompaniments of celery and carrots and see how quickly these disappear. Delicious!
