Buffalo Chicken Wings

Crispy Buffalo chicken wings served with celery and blue cheese dip, a classic American appetizer loved nationwide.

Buffalo wings are one of the most popular appetizers in the USA. They started in New York. Now they are everywhere.

Ingredients

• Chicken wings.

• Hot sauce (Frank’s RedHot is the classic choice).

• Butter.

• Garlic powder.

• Salt.

• Black pepper.

• Oil for frying or baking.

How to Make Them

1. First, pat the chicken wings dry. Dry wings get crispy.
2. Season the wings with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Keep it simple.
3. Heat oil in a deep pan or fryer. You can also bake them if you prefer less oil.
4. Fry the wings until golden and crispy. This takes about 10 to 12 minutes.
5. While the wings cook, melt butter in a small pan. Add hot sauce and stir well.
6. Taste the sauce. Adjust the heat if needed.
7. Toss the hot wings in the sauce while they are still hot. Make sure every wing is coated.
