: : HOOTER'S BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS
: : Recipe:
: : Vegetable oil for frying
: : 1/4 cup butter
: : 1/3 cup Crystal Louisiana Hot Sauce
: : Dash ground pepper
: : Dash garlic powder
: : 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
: : 1/4 teaspoon paprika
: : 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
: : 1/4 teaspoon salt
: : 10 chicken wing pieces
: : On the side:
: : Bleu cheese dressing
: : Celery sticks
: : 1. Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F. You want just enough oil to cover the wings entirely -
: : an inch or so deep at least.
: : 2. Combine the butter, hot sauce, ground pepper and garlic powder in a small saucepan over low
: : heat. Heat until the butter is melted and the ingredients well-blended.
: : 3. Combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper and salt in a small bowl.
: : 4. If the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them. Put the wings into a large bowl and
: : sprinkle the flour mixture over them, coating each wing evenly. Put the wings in the refrigerator for 60
: : to 90 minutes. (This will help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.)
: : 5. Put all the wings into the hot oil and fry them for 10 to 15 minutes or until some parts of the wings
: : begin to turn dark brown.
: : 6. Remove the wings from the oil to a paper towel to drain. But don't let them sit too long, because
: : you want to serve the wings hot.
: : 7. Quickly put the wings into a large bowl. Add the hot sauce and stir, coating all of the wings
: : evenly. You could also use a large plastic container (such as Tupperware) with a lid for this. Put all
: : the wings inside the container, add the sauce, put on the lid, then shake. Serve with bleu cheese
: : dressing and celery sticks on the side.
