Since I am not currently living in the U.S. sometimes if I want to eat a specific thing the only way I can have it is if I make it. This recipe far surpassed the buffalo chicken wings I had in a New York state restaurant and therefore I wanted to post it. Read more . Long time to make but worth the effort. Ingredients:
24 chicken wings (about 4 1/2 pounds) |
2 tablespoons salt |
1 tablespoon sugar |
6 cups of cold water |
1 1/2 tablespoons paprika |
2 teaspoons cayenne |
2 teaspoons black pepper |
1 tablespoon garlic powder or fresh minced garlic |
1 tablespoon onion powder |
4 tablespoons unsalted butter |
4 tablespoons margarine |
1/2 cup red hot sauce |
1 quart vegetable oil |
celery sticks |
blue cheese dressing |
Directions:
1. Cut off and discard the small wing tip from each wing.
2. Then cut the remainder of the wing into 2 pieces.

4. Remove wings from water.
5. Rinse and dry thoroughly with paper towels.
6. Combine paprika, cayenne, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder and put in a large bowl.
7. Add wings and turn them, using a large spoon.

9. Melt butter and margarine in a small saucepan.
10. Add hot sauce and bring to a simmer.
11. Turn off heat and set aside.
12. Heat oil to 375 degrees.

17. Place all the wings together in a bowl and pour the butter mixture over them.
