Dad's Hot Wings

List of Ingredients




24 chicken wings, tips removed (room temperature)
2 cups vegetable oil
***Seasoning Mix***
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (to taste)
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
3/4 teaspoon white pepper
10 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon red pepper sauce, PLUS
1 teaspoon red pepper sauce (to taste)


Recipe



Combine the seasoning mix ingredients thoroughly in a small bowl.

Melt 5 tablespoons of the butter with 2 teaspoons of the red pepper sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Pour into a small shallow bowl and let cool slightly.

Place the chicken wings in a large bowl, sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of the seasoning mix, and add the butter/red pepper sauce mixture. Work the seasonings and butter mixture into the wings with your hands, distributing the seasoning evenly. (Be sure to have wings at room temperature; if they're cold, the marinade mixture will congeal and won't coat the chicken evenly). Set aside to marinate while you heat oil.

Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over high heat. When the oil is very hot, add as many wings as will fit easily in a single layer. Fry until crisp and golden brown, about 8 to 12 minutes, turning several times. Drain on paper towels.

Make a finishing sauce by melting the remaining 5 tablespoons with remaining 2 teaspoons red pepper sauce and remaining seasoning mix in a small sauce pan. Dip the cooked wings into the finishing sauce.

The wings are also good baked instead of fried.
