Submitted by Sorceira

"I love hot wings, and I have been experimenting with recipes for ages. I finally perfected the ingredients and I have been getting rave reviews ever since. Using apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar makes an incredible difference."

• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 2267.96 g chicken wings
• 354.88 ml all-purpose flour
• 4.92 ml garlic powder
• 1.23 ml cayenne pepper
• 4.92 ml salt
• 2.46 ml fresh ground black pepper
• oil, I prefer canola (for deep frying)

• 118.29 ml cayenne pepper hot sauce
• 14.79 ml apple cider vinegar
• blue cheese (optional) or ranch dressing, for dipping (optional)
• celery rib (optional)

directions

1. Separate chicken wings into three sections; discard wing tips or save for making chicken stock. Rinse wing sections under running water; pat dry.
2. Combine flour, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Dredge chicken wing sections in seasoned flour and shake off excess. Place on separate plate.
3. Preheat deep fryer to 340 degrees Fahrenheit. Fry chicken wing sections, about 10-12 pieces at a time, until crispy and golden brown, about 10-15 minutes. Drain on paper toweling.
4. While chicken wings are frying, melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add hot sauce and cider vinegar. Cook sauce mixture until slightly thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat; pour into large bowl.
5. Toss cooked chicken wing sections with sauce. Serve with ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping and celery sticks, if desired. Enjoy!
