    • 2 tbsp olive oil
    • 1 tsp garlic powder
    • 1 tsp paprika
    • 1/2 tsp salt
    • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • For the Buffalo Sauce:
    • 1/2 cup hot sauce (e.g., Frank’s RedHot)
    • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
    • 1 tbsp honey (optional for a touch of sweetness)
    • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • For Serving:
    • Celery sticks
