Storage and Reheating Tips
Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through to maintain crispiness. Avoid microwaving as it can make the wings soggy. The sauce can be reheated gently on the stovetop with a splash of cream if needed.
