Equipment
- Fry Daddy Deep Fryer Or large deep skillet
- Large Sauce Pan
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings
- canola oil or vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons paprika
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 sticks butter
- 1 12 ounce jar Franks Red Hot Sauce
- Tabasco “Chipotle” pepper sauce
- Ranch Dressing Blue Cheese Dressing
- celery sticks
Instructions
- Grab a large zip-top bag and add the salt, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Give it a good shake to blend those spices evenly.
- Toss in your chicken wings (drumettes and flats work great!), seal the bag, then shake, massage, or tumble ’em around until every piece is completely coated in that flavorful seasoning mix.
- Heat up your fry daddy with about 4 cups of oil or heat about 2 inches of oil in a large, deep skillet to 300–350°F (use a thermometer for best results!)
- Carefully add the seasoned wings in batches (don’t overcrowd!), and fry for about 10 minutes, turning as needed, until they’re golden brown and crispy.
- Remove them and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate to soak up any extra oil.While the wings fry, melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat.
- Pour in the entire jar of Frank’s Red Hot, then add about 20 shakes of Tabasco (adjust up or down for your preferred heat level—taste as you go!). Stir until smooth and combined.
- Drop the hot, freshly fried wings right into the warm sauce. Gently stir or toss until every wing is thoroughly coated in that glossy, fiery goodness.
- Plate ’em up hot with your favorite ranch or blue cheese dressing and plenty of fresh celery sticks on the side
