Ingredients
Scale
2 pounds of chicken wings
1 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
1 tablespoon hot sauce (optional)
1 teaspoon dried dill (optional)
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
Vegetable sticks (like carrots and celery, for serving)
Instructions
Marinate the chicken wings by combining buttermilk, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat (375°F to 400°F) and clean the grates.
Remove the wings from the marinade and place them on the grill, leaving space between each wing. Grill for 20-25 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
Prepare the buttermilk ranch dressing by mixing buttermilk, mayonnaise, fresh parsley, salt, and pepper in a small bowl until creamy.
Serve the grilled wings with the ranch dressing and garnish with fresh parsley.
Notes
For deeper flavor, add a splash of lemon juice to the marinade.
Use a resealable plastic bag for easy marinating.
Let the dressing chill in the fridge for a few hours for the best flavor.
Store leftover dressing in an airtight container for up to a week.
