Great taste and easy too. Not much else to say!
1 lb. chicken wings, cut at the joint to yield a wingette and drumette from each wing
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying, peanut, canola, or vegetable oil
1 cu. butter
1/2 cu. hot sauce
Wash and pat chicken dry.
In a small saucepan over a low heat, heat butter and hot sauce just until butter melts; keep warm on stove top.
Salt and pepper the chicken. Heat oil in a deep fryer or dutch oven to 375º F. Deep-fry chicken, 8 to 10 pieces at a time, for 10-12 minutes, turning once or twice.
Drain chicken on a wire cooling rack for 30 seconds. Transfer the warm buffalo sauce to a very large mixing bowl. Toss the fried chicken in the buffalo sauce and remove with a slotted spoon. Repeat with remaining chicken.
*This is a medium hot sauce, so adjust the amount of hot sauce to butter for a milder or hotter sauce.
