Author: Danny Gutierrez

Recipe type: Meats, Appetizers & Tapas

Cuisine: American

Serves: 2-4

Ingredients

Sauce

¾ cup Butter (1½ sticks)
¾ cup Tabasco Hot Sauce
½ teaspoon Ground Pepper
½ teaspoon Garlic Powder

Wings

20 Chicken Wing pieces
Vegetable oil (for frying)
1 cup all-purpose Flour
½ teaspoon Paprika
½ teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
½ teaspoon Salt

Other ingredients

Celery sticks
Carrot sticks
Bleu Cheese Dressing

Instructions

Mise en place

Combine the sifted flour, paprika, cayenne pepper and salt in a large bowl.
If the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them.
Put the wings into flour mixture one at a time, coating each wing evenly and placing them on a plate. When done breading all wings, put the wings in the refrigerator for 30 - 60 minutes. (This will help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.)

Create sauce

Combine the butter, hot sauce, ground pepper and garlic powder in a large saucepan over low heat.
Heat until the butter is melted and the ingredients well-blended.

Fry & sauce wings

Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F. Make sure you have enough oil to cover the wings entirely.
Fry wings for 10 to 15 minutes or until some parts of the wings begin to turn dark brown.
Remove the wings from the oil and set them on paper towels to drain.
After a few minutes, add a few wings at a time to the saucepan containing the sauce mixture. Coat evenly and place on a serving plate.
Serve with celery sticks, carrot sticks and Bleu cheese dressing on the side.
