Why These Wings Win Over Crowds
Scott’s Coast-to-Coast Famous Chicken Wings bring together golden-fried perfection and a tangy, buttery hot sauce that’s become a national sensation. Drawing inspiration from Buffalo’s original roadside shack, each bite is a satisfying crunch coated in fiery, melt-in-your-mouth flavor.
Key Ingredients for Crispy Wings
- 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into flats and drumettes
- 1 gallon peanut oil, for frying
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup hot sauce (Frank’s RedHot recommended)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Step-by-Step Wings Preparation
- Prep the wings: Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
- Heat the oil: In a deep-fryer or heavy kettle, heat peanut oil to 375°F (190°C). Use a thermometer for accuracy.
- Fry until golden: Working in batches to avoid crowding, carefully lower wings into hot oil. Fry for 8–12 minutes, until crisp and deep golden brown.
- Make the sauce: While wings fry, whisk together melted butter and hot sauce in a large mixing bowl. Adjust heat level by adding more hot sauce if you dare!
- Toss and serve: Drain wings on a wire rack or paper towels, then immediately toss in the buttery hot sauce. Serve piping hot with celery sticks and your favorite dipping sauce.
Helpful Tips & Tricks
- Double-fry option: For extra crunch, fry wings twice—first at 325°F for 5 minutes, rest 10 minutes, then fry at 375°F until golden.
- Dry wings thoroughly: Moisture is the enemy of crispiness. Pat dry to get that perfect crunch.
- Flavor variations: Try swapping hot sauce for sriracha or a smoky BBQ glaze for a twist on the classic.
