    Chicken wings are such a great crowd pleaser but what do you do when you have leftover wings? Now you can reheat them!

    No one wants to eat cold soggy wings! With this simple recipe, you can reheat your chicken wings, so the skin gets crispy and the flesh stays juicy!
    This method works with baked chicken wings or fried chicken wings!!!

    If your wings are coated in a sauce this will also work, but you won't get the same crispy skin as the sauce will have soaked in too much, but you can still get delicious wings!!!

    Once everyone has finished enjoying the wings, allow any leftover wings to cool then transfer to an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

      My husband and I love having leftovers after we go to restaurants, so I wanted tips on efficiently storing them. I didn't know you should put wings in an airtight container to put in the fridge for up to 3 days. I'll have to keep that in mind the next time we go out to a restaurant, so we can enjoy and get our money's worth with our food, thanks to this post!
