Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

vegetable oil, for frying
3 pounds chicken wings, split at the joint, wingtips removed and discarded
5 celery ribs, cut into 2-inch sticks and chilled in an ice bath
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup hot sauce, or to taste
1 tablespoon lemon juice
6 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
1 cup sour cream
salt
3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt and freshly ground black pepper
2-3 shakes of hot sauce (recommended: Frank's Red Hot)
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Fill a large 5 to 6-quart heavy pot with 2-inches of oil. Heat over medium heat until a deep fry thermometer registers 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Working in batches, pat 5 to 6 wings dry with VIVA® towels. Gently drop wings into the hot oil. Move them gently in the oil with a spider or slotted spoon so the wings don't stick together. Fry until crispy and golden, about 7 minutes. Remove to a VIVA® towel lined plate and season with salt immediately. Continue with remaining batches. Melt butter over medium heat in a small sauce pan with the hot sauce and lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Pour into a large bowl and add wings. Toss to coat well. Remove celery sticks from water and drain on Viva® towels. Serve chicken wings on a platter with celery sticks and blue cheese dip. Blue Cheese Dip: Whisk all ingredients together in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
