Blazin Buttermilk Wings Recipes

Steps:

• Combine onion, garlic, hot sauce, salt, and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a large bowl. Add the cold buttermilk and stir to dissolve. Snip the wing tips with kitchen shears if desired. Add the chicken wings and be sure they are all coated well in buttermilk. Cover the bowl and chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours.
• Prepare the seasoned flour by whisking together flour, kosher salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, lemon zest, black pepper, oregano, cayenne, baking powder, sage, and dry mustard. Drain off excess buttermilk and dredge the wings in the flour. Place each batch of dredged wings on a wire rack as you go.
• Let wings sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat peanut oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Carefully drop the chicken wings into the hot oil, 4 or 5 at a time. Fry until golden, crisp, and no longer pink in the centers, about 5 minutes. Drain excess oil from wings on paper towels and lightly season with a pinch of salt while still hot. Continue with remaining wings.

Steps:

• For the sweet hot sauce: Combine the ketchup, honey, brown sugar, sriracha, mustard, vinegar, cayenne and 2 tablespoons water in a large bowl and whisk vigorously until everything is mixed well.
• For the flour dredge: Mix together the cornstarch, flour, granulated garlic, onion powder, paprika, black pepper and cayenne in a large bowl.
• For the chicken: Heat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the chicken into strips approximately the size of your thumb, making each strip as even as possible. Whisk together the milk and eggs in a large shallow dish for the egg wash. Roll the chicken strips in the flour dredge until evenly coated, shaking off the excess. Then dip in the egg wash. Then dip in the flour dredge once again.
• In batches, place the chicken strips in the fryer basket and drop it in the oil, giving it a good shake to make sure they don't stick together. Cook until they all begin to float, about 5 minutes. (To insure they have been cooked all the way, feel free to cut one in half.) Toss them in a large bowl with some sweet hot sauce until evenly coated. Repeat with the remaining chicken.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together buttermilk, wing seasoning, and hot sauce. Add drummettes and be sure all are coated. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 3 to 4 hours, preferably overnight.
• Set up grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat. Oil grate when ready to start cooking. Remove wings from refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Grill 12 to 18 minutes, turning occasionally, ending with skin-side down.
• Serve with ranch dressing, celery sticks, and cucumber slices.
• INDOOR: Prepare wings as directed. Preheat broiler. Place wings on foil lined baking sheet or broiling pan. Broil 15 to 20 minutes turning occasionally or until cooked.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Arrange frozen chicken wings in a single layer in a shallow baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then flip wings. Continue baking until the skin is crispy and meat is no longer pink at the bone, about 20 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, cook and stir hot sauce, butter, and vinegar in a saucepan over medium heat until butter is melted, about 5 minutes. Add flour; whisk until sauce is smooth. Continue cooking until sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes more.
• Drain grease from chickens wings and let stand for 5 minutes. Transfer chicken to a large bowl and add sauce. Toss to coat.
