  1. In a shallow dish, combine flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder, and peppers.
  2. Coat chicken entirely in the flour mixture; refrigerate coated wings for 1 hour; coat chicken again with remaining flour mixture.

  4. Deep-fry chicken, 8 – 10 pieces at a time, in 375 degree oil for 13 minutes, turning once or twice.
  5. Drain chicken on paper towels for 30 seconds, then immediately toss fried chicken in buffalo sauce mixture and remove with a slotted spoon.
  6. Repeat with remaining chicken.
Recipe Notes

Adjusting the spiciness of the sauce: As is, the recipe produces a medium sauce. To change the amount of spiciness, simply adjust the butter-to-hot sauce ratio:

  • Mild: Use ¾ cup butter and ¼ cup hot sauce
  • Hot: Use ¼ cup butter and ¾ cup hot sauce
