Ingredients
 
 

  • 12 whole chicken wings (drumettes and flats separated with wing tips discarded)
  • 4 ounces Frank's RedHot Sauce (1/2 cup)
  • 4 tablespoons butter (salted)
  • 2 ribs celery (cut into 4- to 5-inch batons)
  • 1 carrot (large, cut into 4- to 5-inch batons)
  • 6 ounces blue cheese dressing

Equipment

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 430°F or 220°C.
  • Bring water in a 6-quart stock pot to a boil. Add salt.
  • Drop the wings into the boiling water and boil for one minute.
  • After one minute, remove the wings immediately from the pot and place them on a cooling rack in the sink. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes until the wings dry thoroughly. Once they are dry, you can dry them even more by dabbing the wings with paper towels.
  • Place the cooling rack with wings over a sheet pan.
  • Place the wings in the oven and cook for 25 minutes.
  • Flip the wings and cook for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Once you've flipped the wings, combine the butter and hot sauce in a small saucepan. Cook the mixture on a low fire until the butter is melted. Turn off the heat on the stove but leave the sauce on the burner to keep it warm.
  • Remove the wings from the oven and place them into a medium or large metal mixing bowl.
  • Slowly pour the sauce over the wings and mix until the wings are thoroughly coated with sauce.
  • Serve on a large plate with the celery batons, carrot batons and blue cheese dressing on the side.

Notes

  • The wing sauce can be refrigerated and rewarmed.
  • The recipe can be doubled depending on the size of your oven, stove and cooling rack.
  • You can add more or less hot sauce according to your flavor preference and heat tolerance.
  • You can replace the Frank's hot sauce with Tabasco or Crystal, but the flavor won't be the same.
  • Check out our Wedge Salad recipe for an easy-to-make blue cheese dressing recipe.
