Equipment

  • Whisk
  • Bowls

Ingredients
  

  • 1 stick unsalted butter 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons
  • 1/2 cup Louisiana-style hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • For the Boneless Wings:
  • 1 pound boneless chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces or cubes
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon spicy seasoning blend
  • Salt and freshly cracked black pepper to taste about 1/2 to 1 teaspoon each
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • Vegetable oil for frying
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • For Serving:
  • Blue cheese dressing or ranch dressing
  • Celery sticks

Instructions
 

  • Begin by cutting your boneless chicken breast into bite-sized cubes. This allows for even cooking and makes for easy eating.
  • In one bowl, whisk together the flour, smoked paprika, spicy seasoning blend, salt, and pepper. This combination adds flavor and creates that lovely coating on the chicken.
  • In another bowl, beat the egg with the buttermilk. This gothic buttermilk soak not only enhances flavor but keeps the wings juicy.
  • Take one piece of chicken, dip it into the buttermilk mixture, allowing any excess liquid to drip off. Then coat it in the seasoned flour mixture. Ensure it's thoroughly covered.
  • In a deep frying pan or Dutch oven, heat several inches of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Keep an eye on the oil temperature to avoid burning your coating.
  • Carefully add chicken pieces in batches to the hot oil. Fry them until golden brown, about 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally for even cooking. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and place them on a paper towel-lined plate.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and honey until smooth.
  • In a large bowl, add the fried chicken and pour the buffalo sauce over it. Toss gently to coat the chicken evenly with that irresistible spicy goodness.
  • Serve the wings hot with your choice of ranch or blue cheese dressing, along with crisp celery sticks for a classic touch.

Notes

  • Temperature Control: Keeping the oil at the right temperature is key to crispy wings. Use a thermometer to check frequently.
  • Don’t Crowd the Pan: Frying too many pieces at once can lower the oil temperature. Work in small batches.
  • Leftover Sauce: You can store any leftover buffalo sauce in the fridge for other recipes.
  • Experiment with Flavors: Feel free to mix and match additional spices or flavors into your sauce.
  • Use Cornstarch: For an extra crispy coating, try mixing cornstarch with the flour.
