Method

Preparation of Wings

  1. 1

    Clean and Season Wings

    Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the wings in the seasoning mix until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Preheat Oil

    In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil reaches the right temperature.

Frying the Wings

  1. 3

    Fry the Wings

    Carefully place the seasoned wings in the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove the wings and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Buffalo Sauce Preparation

  1. 4

    Make the Sauce

    In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, add the Frank's RedHot sauce, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and honey. Stir until well combined and heated through.

Tossing Wings

  1. 5

    Coat Wings with Sauce

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the fried wings with the buffalo sauce. Toss until the wings are thoroughly coated in the sauce.

Serving

  1. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the wings hot with celery sticks, carrot sticks, and a side of blue cheese dressing for dipping.
