Course: Appetizer
Cuisine: American

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds chicken wings (mix of drumettes and flats, patted dry and chilled)
  • Canola or vegetable oil (for frying)
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 tablespoons Frank's Red Hot Wings Sauce
  • Celery (for serving, optional)
  • blue cheese dressing (for serving, optional)

Equipment

  • Large Pot or Deep Fryer
  • Slotted spoon or spider
  • Paper towels
  • Mixing bowl

Method
 

  1. Start by patting the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Place the wings in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to chill.
  2. In a large pot or deep fryer, pour enough canola or vegetable oil to submerge the wings completely. Heat the oil to 375°F (190°C).
  3. Carefully add the chicken wings in batches to the hot oil. Fry the wings for about 8-10 minutes, or until they are crispy and golden.
  4. In a small saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of salted butter over low heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons of Frank's Red Hot Wings Sauce until well combined.
  5. In a large mixing bowl, combine the fried wings with the buffalo sauce. Toss them gently to ensure each wing is thoroughly coated.
  6. Transfer the buffalo wings to a serving platter and pair them with crunchy celery sticks and creamy blue cheese dressing if desired.

Notes

  • For extra crispy wings, double fry them.
  • Experiment with different hot sauces for varying spice levels.
  • Keep the oil temperature consistent for best results.
