This is an awesome appetizer that is best eaten with beer. It is also a comfort food that I crave for once in a while. The blue cheese dip and the celery sticks balances out the spiciness.

 

Ingredients:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

20 pieces chicken wings

1/2 cup butter or margarine

1/2 cup hot sauce

Oil for frying (vegetable, canola, peanut)

8 ounces sour cream

1/2 cup mayonnaise

2 ounces crumbled blue cheese

1 clove minced garlic

 

In a blender, combine the sour cream, mayonnaise, blue cheese and garlic. Blend until smooth and place in a bottle or container. Refrigerate up to 1 week.

Place the flour, salt, paprika, garlic powder and pepper in a shallow bowl or dish. Coat the chicken wings in the flour mixture and refrigerate it for an hour. After, coat the chicken in flour for the second time.

In a small saucepan, melt the butter and stir in the hot sauce. Keep warm.

Deep fry the chicken in oil until they are golden brown. Place them on a rack or strainer for 3 minutes to drain the excess oil. After coat the wings with butter and hot sauce mixture. Transfer the chicken on a plate and serve with blue cheese and celery sticks.
