Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Prepare the Wings: Cut off the tips of the chicken wings and separate them at the joint. Pat dry and season generously with salt and pepper. (5 minutes)

02

Step
25 mins

Heat the Oil: In a deep-fat fryer or a large, heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Ensure the pot is stable and the oil level is well below the rim to prevent splattering. (10 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Fry in Batches: Carefully place half of the seasoned wings into the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the fryer. Fry until the wings are golden brown and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. (10 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

Drain and Salt: Remove the fried wings with a slotted spoon and place them on a wire rack to drain excess oil. Immediately season with salt to taste. Repeat the frying process with the remaining wings. (5 minutes)

05

Step
3 mins

Prepare the Sauce: While the wings are draining, melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir in the hot pepper sauce and distilled white vinegar until well combined. (2 minutes)

06

Step

Coat the Wings: Transfer the drained wings to a large mixing bowl. Pour the melted hot sauce mixture over the wings and toss gently but thoroughly to ensure each wing is evenly coated. (3 minutes)

07

Step

Serve Immediately: Arrange the saucy wings on a platter and serve immediately with your favorite blue cheese dressing and celery sticks for a classic Buffalo wing experience. (2 minutes)

For extra crispy wings, consider double-frying. After the initial frying, let the wings cool slightly, then fry them again for an additional 2-3 minutes before tossing in the sauce.
Adjust the amount of hot pepper sauce to suit your spice preference. Start with the recommended amount and add more to taste.
For a richer flavor, brown the butter slightly before adding the hot sauce and vinegar. Be careful not to burn the butter.
Consider using chicken thighs (boneless skinless) instead of wings.
