In search of Low Cal Hot Wings....

If you substitute grilled chicken for the wings, it should take care of most the fat problem and be a really good source of protein. Just watch the sauce. Most hot sauces don't have a lot of calories because they are vinegar based, but if you have a recipe with a ton of sugar, it could up the count in a hurry. Good luck!

Chili is a good game day food.

Experiment with Cayenne Pepper. You could mix it with something like I Cant Believe It's Not Butter Light and brush it lightly on each wing and then bake it instead of hot sauce. It'll be plenty spicy so don't use too much but it will have a lot less sodium, sugar, etc.

We used to grill them over charcoal and remove most of the skin. Still yummy. These days I get my kicks from shredded buffalo chicken sandwiches.

you should boiled the wing first then bake it under really high heat and toss it with your favorite wing sauce btw heres a really good recipe http://divascancook.com/2012/01/baked-buffalo-wings-recipe.html

The idea of substituting chicken breasts for wings is a great idea..A lot of the fat is in the skin, so boneless and skinless is the way to go. I gave up buffalo wings a while back but I am always up to the challenge of re-creating our favorite munchies to be lower in fat and or sodium. So far, I have been using Asian-sesame salad dressing as a flavor enhanser in a lot of my chicken dishes. It is only 35 calories fer tablespoon and it goes a looong way. Try a little worchestershire in your cottage cheese, mmmmmm.
