Ingredients

• 2 pounds boneless chicken wings
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 2 cups vegetable oil
• 0.5 cup unsalted butter
• 0.75 cup hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 4 celery sticks
• 0.5 cup ranch dressing

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 2

Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 3

Dredge the chicken pieces in the flour mixture until well coated. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F (190°C).

Step 5

Fry the chicken wings in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet, until golden brown and cooked through, about 10-12 minutes per batch.

Step 6

Remove the chicken from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 7

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the hot sauce, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, and honey. Stir together until completely combined and heated through.

Step 8

Place the fried chicken wings in a large bowl. Pour the buffalo sauce over them and toss well to coat each piece thoroughly.

Step 9

Serve the buffalo chicken hot with celery sticks and ranch dressing on the side.
