1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
2 ounces crumbled blue cheese
2 tablespoons buttermilk
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
2 cloves garlic, finely grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for oiling the baking sheets
4 pounds split chicken wings, wingtips removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

Whisk together the mayonnaise, sour cream, blue cheese, buttermilk, chives and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Generously oil 2 rimmed baking sheets.
Toss the wings with 2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper in a large bowl and divide them between the 2 prepared baking sheets, spreading them out into a single layer. Bake until very crispy, about 55 minutes.
Whisk the melted butter and sriracha together in a large bowl. Transfer the baked wings to the bowl and toss to coat. Serve with the dipping sauce.
