Hot Wings

If you want to simplify this recipe, use store-bought Buffalo Wing sauce instead of the mixture of dry spices. Most wing sauces don't have any sugar in them and are quite low in carbs.

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 2 teaspoons dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon curry powder
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 2 pounds chicken wings, cut into drumettes

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. Combine the pepper, oregano, curry, paprika, and thyme well in a bowl.
3. Arrange the wings in a shallow baking pan, and sprinkle the mixture evenly over them, turning to coat both sides.
4. Roast for 45 to 50 minutes, or until crisp. Serve with the traditional accompaniments of ranch or blue cheese dressing and celery sticks, if desired.

Yield: About 24 pieces, each with a trace of carbohydrates, a trace of fiber, and 4 grams of protein.
