Total Time: 27 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 12 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 2
• 1/4 cup butter
• 1/4 cup louisiana hot sauce
• 1 dash pepper, ground
• 1 dash garlic powder
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 10 chicken wings
• bleu cheese salad dressing
• celery
• vegetable oil, for frying

Recipe

• 1 combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt in a small bowl.
• 2 if the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them.
• 3 put the wings into a large bowl and sprinkle the flour mixture over them, coating each wing evenly.
• 4 put the wings in the refrigerator for 60 to 90 minutes. (this will help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.)
• 5 heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees.
• 6 you want just enough oil to cover the wings entirely -- an inch or so deep at least. 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 are well blended.
• 7 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.
• 8 remove the wings from the oil to a paper towel to drain.
• 9 but don't let them sit too long, because you want to serve the wings hot. quickly put the wings into a large bowl.
• 10 add the hot sauce and stir, coating all the wings evenly.
• 11 you could also use a large plastic container with a lid for this.
• 12 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.
