CLASSIC HOT WINGS

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 200°. Pour oil to a depth of 2″ in a 6-qt. Dutch oven, and heat over medium heat until a deep-fry thermometer reads 350°. Dry wings thoroughly with paper towels, and working in batches, fry wings until golden brown, about 12 minutes. Transfer wings to a wire rack set over a baking sheet, and place in oven to keep warm until all wings are fried. 2. Heat margarine in a 12″ deep-sided skillet over medium heat; stir in hot sauce until smooth. Add wings, and toss until completely coated. Serve wings in a large bowl with dressing and celery on the side.

CLASSIC HOT WINGS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 400°. Spray a wire rack with non-stick cooking spray. Place the wire rack inside a foil-lined baking sheet; set aside.
• 2. Place wings in a gallon-size zip-lock plastic bag. Pour the olive oil over the wings, and seal bag. Toss the chicken in the oil until all pieces are well coated.
• 3. Mix together the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper and cayenne/chili pepper (if using). Sprinkle seasoning mix over the chicken pieces, and seal bag. Toss chicken until evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
• 4. Place chicken on wire rack, and place baking sheet in oven and bake wings for 30 minutes.
• 5. While wings are baking, prepare sauce by heating the hot sauce, butter and honey in small saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly until butter melts, about 3 minutes.
• 6. After 30 minutes baking time, brush half of the sauce over all sides of the wings (brush one side, flip wings and brush other side). Continue to bake another 30 minutes or until sauce begins to caramelize and skin is just slightly charred in spots. (During the last few minutes, you can brush some of the pan sauce over the wings, and then broil the wings for the last 3 or 4 minutes if you want more charring.)
• 7. Remove baking sheet from oven, brush remaining sauce over wings (or alternatively, you can place wings and sauce in a bowl, and toss until wings are thoroughly coated). Serve immediately with prepared ranch dip, for dipping.
