Buffalo Wings
This recipe for keto buffalo wings is utilizing a technique from Keji-Lopez at seriouseats.com to improve the crispiness of the wings when baking them in the oven. It does add some carbs, so feel free to leave out the baking powder, if you would like, which will leave you at about zero carbs for the whole dish.
