Preheat the oven to 400°F.

In a bowl, combine 1.5 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning, a generous amount of cayenne, and 3/4 tablespoon of garlic powder.

Add the pre-cooked chicken wings to the bowl and mix to coat them evenly with the seasoning.

Arrange the seasoned chicken wings on a plate, ensuring they are separated and not stacked on top of each other.

Place the wings in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes.

While the wings are baking, prepare the buffalo wing sauce by combining 1.5 cups of hot sauce, 1.5 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning, 3/4 tablespoon of garlic powder, 1 stick of melted butter, 1 cup of sweet Asian chili sauce, and 1 tablespoon of soy sauce in a bowl.

Whisk the sauce ingredients together until well mixed and the butter is fully incorporated without lumps.

Remove the wings from the oven once they are crispy and gorgeous.

Transfer the wings into the buffalo wing sauce and toss to coat them thoroughly.

Plate the wings and serve with celery and blue cheese.
