Buffalo Chicken Wings

Ingredients

24 Chicken Wings (about 4 pounds), tips removed

Salt and Pepper to taste

1 quart Vegetable Oil

1/2 stick (1/4 cup) Unsalted Butter

1/4 cup Louisiana Hot Sauce, or more to taste

1 Tbsp White Vinegar

Celery Sticks as an accompaniment

Blue Cheese Dressing as accompaniment

Method

Cut the wings in half, and season them well with salt and pepper.

Heat oil to 375˚. Fry the wings, in 2 batches, until crisp and golden brown, about 10 minutes for each batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Melt the butter in a saucepan, and add the hot sauce and vinegar. Stir to blend. Dip the wings into the sauce, and place wings on a serving plate. Pour any extra sauce over wings. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing.
