FRIED BUFFALO WINGS WITH SPICY, SWEET, AND UMAMI SAUCE



Fried Buffalo Wings with Spicy, Sweet, and Umami Sauce image

The secret to creating great fried chicken at home is par-boiling the meat before frying. Believe it or not, this actually produces a incredibly crunchy piece of chicken while keeping the meat tender and juicy. Using wings gives you a ton of surface area for more crunch and more of the special sauce. The sauce in this recipe is a twist on the traditional Buffalo wing sauce with the addition of molasses and Worcestershire sauce for a slightly sweet and 'umami' flavor. Frying with lard adds flavor and extra crunch.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 gallon water
salt
2 tablespoons crushed red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons chicken bouillon granules
2 pounds chicken wings, cut apart at joints, wing tips discarded
¾ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup masa harina flour (Mexican corn masa mix)
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
3 tablespoons ground cayenne pepper
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups canola oil for frying
2 cups lard for frying
½ cup butter
½ cup hot pepper sauce
⅓ cup molasses
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Pour the water into a large stock pot and stir in the salt, red pepper flakes, and chicken bouillon granules. Bring the mixture to a boil.
  • Cook the chicken wings to the boiling water until no longer pink inside and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes.
  • Drain the wings and set aside to cool until easy to handle, about 15 minutes.
  • Whisk the flour, masa harina, paprika, 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Press chicken wings into the seasoned flour until lightly coated; tap off excess flour.
  • Heat canola oil and lard in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Working in batches of about 6 wings at a time, deep-fry the wings until deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Set the wings aside to drain on paper towels.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over low heat, and whisk in the hot pepper sauce, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 teaspoon of garlic powder. Remove sauce from the heat.
  • To serve, stir the wings into the sauce, working in batches, until coated. Transfer wings to a serving dish to serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh chicken wings: Fresh chicken wings will yield the best results, as they will be more tender and flavorful than frozen wings.
  • Dry the chicken wings thoroughly: This will help the wings to crisp up in the oven and prevent them from becoming soggy.
  • Use a good quality buffalo sauce: There are many different brands of buffalo sauce available, so be sure to choose one that you like the taste of. You can also make your own buffalo sauce if you prefer.
  • Don't overcrowd the chicken wings in the oven: If you overcrowd the wings, they will not cook evenly and they will be more likely to become soggy.
  • Bake the chicken wings until they are crispy: The wings should be baked until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside.
  • Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Buffalo wings are traditionally served with blue cheese dressing, but you can also serve them with ranch dressing, honey mustard, or any other dipping sauce that you like.

Conclusion:

Spicy buffalo wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties or game day gatherings. By following the tips in this recipe, you can make sure that your buffalo wings turn out perfect every time.
