Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 4 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter
- 0.33 cups Hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot)
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey (optional for sweetness)
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels, then separate wings into drumettes and flats if not already pre-cut. Discard wing tips, or save for making stock.
In a large bowl, combine the flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss the wings in the seasoned flour mixture to coat evenly. Shake off any excess flour and set aside on a baking rack for 10-15 minutes to allow the coating to adhere.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet or fryer to 375°F (190°C). Test the oil's readiness by dropping in a small pinch of flour; it should sizzle immediately upon contact.
Working in batches, carefully lower the wings into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer fried wings onto a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
While frying the remaining wings, prepare the Buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Stir in the hot sauce, white vinegar, and honey (if using) until fully combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
Once all the wings are fried and drained, place them in a large mixing bowl. Pour the prepared Buffalo sauce over the wings and toss well to ensure even coating.
Serve immediately with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side.
