Equipment
- Saucepan
- measuring cups & spoons
Ingredients
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 4 dozen chicken wings
- 2 cups of Frank's Red Hot Buffalo Wing sauce
- avocado oil or canola oil
- 2 tsp granulated sugar
- 1 tsp ground black pepper
- 4 tsp water
- ⅔ cup of neutral cooking oil such as avocado oil
- 4 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 egg yolks
- Kosher salt
- 1 tsp ground cayenne pepper
Instructions
- In a saucepan, combine hot sauce, oil, sugar, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and water. Whisk to combine.
- Simmer the sauce in the pan over medium heat to melt the flavors.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolk and cornstarch until smooth.
- Slowly pour the egg yolk mixture into the hot sauce, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
- Whisk until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Heat neutral oil to 375°F (190°C) in a deep-fryer or large pot.
- Fry chicken wings in batches to golden brown and crispiness (12-15 minutes).
- Using tongs, remove the wings and let excess oil drain on paper towels.
- While hot, toss the wings in the sauce for full coating. Enjoy your saucy chicken wings!
Notes
- For a milder sauce, reduce the amount of cayenne pepper or omit it altogether.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ranch or blue cheese dressing.
- If you prefer a vegetarian option, replace the chicken wings with tofu or cauliflower florets.
- For an extra crispy exterior, coat the wings in cornstarch before frying.
- You can also bake the wings instead of frying them for a healthier alternative. Simply place them on a baking sheet and bake at 400°F (205°C) for 40 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- For a fun twist, try using different hot sauce flavors or adding other seasonings to the sauce, such as smoked paprika or onion powder.
