THE PERFECT BUFFALO WING SAUCE



The Perfect Buffalo Wing Sauce image

Not too mild, but not too hot. Great for BBQs or picnics. Once sauce is bubbling, turn to low and let fried wings sit in sauce for 5 minutes flipping wings every other minute. Serve and enjoy! Don't forget the celery sticks and blue cheese.

BUFFALO CHICKEN WINGS IN A JAR



Buffalo Chicken Wings in a Jar image

This fun-sized take on the game day appetizer offers everything you love about Buffalo wings, minus the bones, messy frying, and any risk of your drunk friends dripping sauce all over the place. Instead of wings, we simply take chicken thighs, simmer them directly in butter 'n hot sauce, shred, and mix with celery. The blue cheese comes in the accompanying crostini: baguette slices toasted and spread with butter and blue cheese.

Time 2h35m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup unsalted butter
¼ cup Louisiana-style hot sauce
3 tablespoons water
⅓ cup finely chopped celery
1 pinch cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 baguette, cut into 1/4 inch slices
¼ cup melted butter
½ cup blue cheese, or to taste
¼ cup butter, at room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat a dry saucepan over high heat. Place thighs skin-side down in the hot pan and cook until skin is browned, seasoning generously with salt, about 5 minutes. Turn thighs over once skin no longer sticks to the pan. Add butter, Louisiana hot sauce, and water. Toss thighs around to stir the sauce until butter is melted.
  • Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until meat can be easily pulled from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours. Remove from heat and break meat up into smaller pieces using tongs, stirring it into the sauce. Let mixture cool to room temperature, at least 20 minutes.
  • Transfer meat to a mixing bowl, shredding it into smaller pieces. Discard bones, cartilage, and skin.
  • Bring the sauce in the pan to a boil over medium-high heat. Let reduce until slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour sauce into the bowl of chicken meat and mix thoroughly. Taste for seasoning; add salt, cayenne, and hot sauce as needed. Add celery and mix one last time.
  • Pack chicken mixture into a pint-sized jar or crock, and top with a spoonful of hot sauce if desired, and seal jar. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Remove from fridge 30 minutes before service to allow spread to warm up a bit.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) in the meantime. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet. Brush tops generously with butter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges start to turn golden brown, about 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, smear butter and blue cheese together in a small bowl until combined.
  • Remove toasted baguette slices and let cool slightly, leaving the oven on. Spread blue cheese spread on top, then continue baking crostini until golden brown and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with the Buffalo chicken spread.

CAJUN SPICE CHICKEN WINGS WITH REMOULADE SAUCE



Cajun Spice Chicken Wings with Remoulade Sauce image

Hot, crispy wings dipped in a cold, creamy sauce provide a great contrast in texture, flavor, and temperature. This New Orleans-inspired version of Buffalo-spiced chicken wings uses a technique that does not include a deep fryer so it's easier and less messy. By using baking powder in the spice rub, these wings stay super crispy!

Categories     Chicken Wings

Time 1h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground paprika
1 ½ teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
½ teaspoon dried thyme, crushed
2 pounds chicken wings, split and tips discarded
1 tablespoon capers, drained
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce
⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon ground paprika
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 tablespoon finely sliced green onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare spice rub by combining baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder, cumin, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, oregano, and thyme in a small bowl. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  • Place wings in a large bowl and toss in 3 tablespoons spice rub. Toss wings with tongs until thoroughly and evenly coated. Transfer to a baking rack set over a parchment-lined sheet pan. Sprinkle a little more spice rub over each wing and let sit for 15 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Prepare remoulade sauce by crushing capers in a mixing bowl with the back of a fork. Add mayonnaise, Dijon, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, cayenne, paprika, garlic, green onion, parsley, and lemon juice; whisk to combine. Taste and add salt if needed. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
  • Bake wings in the center of the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip and continue to bake until beautifully browned, no longer pink at the bone, and the juices run clear, 20 to 25 minutes longer. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Serve with remoulade sauce.

BEST BUFFALO WING SAUCE!!



Best Buffalo Wing Sauce!! image

ONLY use FRANKS RED HOT for this recipe please! It is the reason this sauce is soooooo perfectly perfect!! My whole family freaks every time I make this. You can toss traditional fried chicken wings in it or try something new like shrimp or boneless skinless chicken tenderloins. Whatever you like "Buffalo Style" this is your sauce... I like to serve with the traditional celery sticks and bleu cheese dressing.
