Buffalo Wings

Chicken wings are an excellent appetiser, and these buffalo wings are no exception. These chicken wings are the real deal. So crispy, juicy, and saucy.

Buffalo wings originate from America. They are typically deep-fried, though they can be baked for a healthy alternative, and then coated in a buttery and tangy hot sauce.

Chicken wings are one of my favourite starters. I love experimenting with different flavours to make my own versions and recreating recipes.

I have many chicken wings recipes. My personal favourite is my spicy chicken wings recipe, whereas my daughter is obsessed with my honey BBQ chicken wings. You will definitely be able to find a chicken wings recipe that you like.

For this wings recipe, I decided to stick to a classic chicken wings recipe by recreating the popular buffalo chicken wings recipe.

Fried chicken is less often about the recipe, but more often about applying techniques to ensure that you get a crispy and crunchy coating. For more in-depth detail on how to fry chicken check out my southern fried chicken recipe.

When it comes to the flour coating, you can season it however you want. This recipe uses basic ingredients, but it still tastes amazing.

If you want it spicier, add some chilli powder. If you think the coating needs more salt, then add some more. This recipe really is great to make your own, and it can easily be adjusted to suit your preference.

You can buy store-bought buffalo sauce, but I prefer to make my own with hot sauce, honey, and butter.

I like to use Frank’s Red Hot sauce, but this isn’t necessary. I have used other hot sauces, and they taste just as good.

It is always important to note that you must use chicken wings with skin. The skin is what crisps up to give that delicious crunch that everyone loves.

These fried buffalo chicken wings are a total game changer for parties and can be served as appetisers or as finger food.
