Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb Chicken wings
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 3 cups Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Hot sauce (e.g., Frank's RedHot)
- 4 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp White vinegar
- 1 tbsp Honey
- optional Ranch or blue cheese dressing (for serving)
- optional Celery sticks (for serving)
Instructions
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them in a large mixing bowl. Season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss well to coat evenly.
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the wings and toss again to ensure an even, light coating.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until the oil reaches 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to monitor the temperature for best results.
Working in batches, carefully place the wings into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 8-10 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the wings to a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining wings.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the hot sauce, unsalted butter, white vinegar, and honey. Stir until the butter is melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.
Place the fried wings in a large bowl. Pour the hot sauce mixture over the wings and toss to coat evenly.
Serve the spicy buffalo wings hot with ranch or blue cheese dressing on the side, along with celery sticks if desired.
