Description
Fried chicken wings are tossed with a sauce made with butter, hot pepper sauce, chile-garlic sauce, Thai red chile paste, Asian sweet chile sauce, and honey for a spicy and sweet Thai spin on an American tradition.
Ingredients
•
15 chicken wings
•
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
•
oil for deep frying
•
1/4 cup butter
•
1/4 cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank's RedHot®)
•
1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
•
1/2 teaspoon Thai red chile paste
•
2 tablespoons Asian sweet chile sauce (such as Mae Ploy® Sweet Chilli Sauce)
•
2 tablespoons honey
Directions
1
Toss chicken wings with the flour in a large non-porous bowl to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 60 to 90 minutes.
2
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
3
Combine butter, hot pepper sauce, chile-garlic sauce, Thai red chile paste, Asian sweet chile sauce, and honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted completely and the sauce is well blended, about 5 minutes; set aside.
4
Fry the chicken wings in the hot oil until they become golden brown and are no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken wings to a serving bowl.
5
Pour the sauce over the chicken wings; stir to coat.
