Recipe Summary Scott's Coast-To-Coast Famous Chicken Wings

Where I'm from, they're just called 'Wings.' I've made this recipe for as long as I can remember - hopping from my hometown of Buffalo, NY, to Raleigh, NC, now to Seattle, WA. This wing recipe has been sought after by many that have tasted them, and I've never given up the recipe or prep method...until now.

Ingredients | Air Fryer Recipes Chicken Wings

1 gallon peanut oil

25 chicken wings, segmented and patted dry with paper towels

⅓ cup unsalted butter, melted

½ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon coarse-ground black pepper

Directions

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or kettle to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Gently add the wings, one at a time, to the hot oil. Stir gently to assure the wings do not stick together. Fry the chicken wings in the preheated oil until cooked through and the are floating gently atop the oil, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the wing should read 180 degrees F (82 degrees C).

Stir the melted butter, hot pepper sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a large mixing bowl until thoroughly combined. Add the cooked wings to the sauce and turn to coat; transfer to a serving platter.

For a "medium hot" wing, add 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes to the wing sauce.

For a truly "hot" wing, add 2 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon of your favorite super-hot hot sauce to the wing sauce. My favorites are Scorned Woman(R), Black Rhino(R), and Vicious Viper(R).
