Hot Buffalo Wings {Baked or Fried}
Ingredients
- 4 pounds chicken wings
- 2 cups hot sauce (I prefer Frank's Red Hot)
- 1/2 cup butter
- 1 packet zesty Italian dressing mix
Instructions
To Bake: Preheat oven to 425°
- Line a baking sheet with foil and top with a wire rack.
- In a large saucepan add the chicken wings, and 1 tablespoon salt and cover with water. Bring to a boil and boil for 10 minutes.
- Drain the wings then arrange on rack. Using paper towels pat the wings dry.
- Bake at 425° for 30 minutes, turning halfway through cooking.
- While the wings are cooking, combine butter, hot sauce, and dressing packet in a saucepan. Cook over medium heat until butter is melted.
- When wings are fully cooked, adjust oven rack to to 6 inches below the broiler. Turn broiler on and broil wings about 5 minutes on each side.
- Toss the wings (a few at a time) into the hot sauce mixture to coat.
To Fry:
- Using a deep fryer or a large pot heat, oil to 350°. Fry wings for 10-12 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Resume with step 7 above.
Notes
Wings can be placed in a crockpot set on low to keep warm.
