Fig It!

3 pounds chicken drummettes
1/2 cup good marinara sauce
1/2 cup hot sauce
Celery sticks, for serving
Light cream based Italian style dressing, for serving


DIRECTIONS
Combine chicken, marinara and hot sauce in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let sit on the counter for 2 hours, if you have the time.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Place a baker’s rack over a foil covered cookie sheet. Place wings on the cookie sheet and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until a few of the larger wings are 165 degrees.
Remove from oven and pop any bubbles of fat under the skin. Serve hot with celery sticks and dressing, if desired.
Here’s the skinny:
I took out the butter and added marinara sauce, removing about 100 grams of fat and around 800 calories.
Instead of frying in oil, I baked the wings in an elevated cookie sheet. I also got rid of a little extra fat by bursting the bubbles of fat under the skin after cooking.
