Chicken Wings

Chef Jason Hill shares his best chicken wings recipe in this episode of "Chef Tips."

Chicken wings are one of America's favorite finger foods. The traditional chicken wing preparation that originated in Buffalo New York called for chicken wings, cayenne pepper sauce and butter. Today we're going to put a twist on this classic chicken wings recipe with a dash of smoked paprika.

Buffalo wings are also known as chicken wings, hot wings or simply just wings. I got a game to catch, so let's get started on one of my favorite chicken wing recipes. To prepare baked chicken wings, bake the wings on a sheet pan coated with 2 tablespoons of melted butter for 45 minutes at about 425 F, turning the wings halfway through. Drain and toss with chicken wing sauce.

Buffalo Chicken Wings

20 chicken wings, thawed and patted dry
1 cup all purpose flour
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1/2 stick butter
1/2 cup vinegar based cayenne pepper sauce
Peanut oil, for frying (or canola or vegetable oil)

Wash thawed chicken wings and pat dry. Season to your liking with kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper.

In a casserole dish, mix together the flour and paprika. Set aside.

Prepare the chicken wing sauce. In a sauce pot, melt down the 1/2 stick of butter and 1/2 cup of cayenne pepper sauce. After butter is melted, remove from heat.

Set fryer to 375 F, or see baking method above.

Dredge chicken wings in flour, shake off excess, and add to the fryer. After 12 minutes, drain wings on paper towels. After all wings are cooked, pour over the sauce and mix well.

Serve these with our buffalo chicken dip and celery sticks. This appetizer recipe is great for a Super Bowl party or other gathering. You'll also need a lot of napkins! SUBSCRIBE! http://tinyurl.com/kfrblj7
