If you are missing the taste of certain sauces because you are on keto, we have the perfect sauce for you. You substitute the brown sugar with Swerve or Lakanto brown sugar for the perfect sweet and spicy sauce.
These go great with a fresh salad with keto friendly blue cheese dressing or ranch.
If you like your wings super crispy, just place them under the broiler for the last 5 minutes.
