Recipe - Hooters Buffalo Chicken Wings

Vegetable oil for frying
One fourth cup Butter
One fourth cup Louisiana Hot Sauce
1 ds Ground pepper
1 ds Garlic powder
One half cup Flour
One fourth teaspoon Paprika
One fourth teaspoon Cayenne pepper
One fourth teaspoon Salt
10 Chicken pieces

ON THE SIDE
Bleu cheese salad dressing
Celery sticks

Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees. You want just enough oil to cover
the wings entirely an inche or so deep at least.

Combine the butter, hot sauce, ground pepper, and garlic powder in a small
saucepan over low heat. Heat until the butter is melted and teh ingredients
are well blended.

Combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt in a small bowl.

If the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them. Put the wings
into a large bowl and sprinkle the flour mixture over them, coating each
wing evenly. Put the wings in the refrigerator for 60 to 90 minutes. (This
will help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.)

Put all the wings into the hot oil and fry them for 10 to 15 minutes or
until some parts of the wings begin to turn dark brown. Remove the wings
from the oil to a paper towel to drain. But don't let them sit too long,
because you want to serve the wings hot.

Quickly put the wings into a large bowl. Add the hot sauce and stir,
coating all the wings evenly. You could also use a large plastic container
with a lid for this. Put all the wings inside the container, add the sauce,
put on the lid, then shake. Serve with Bleu cheese dressing and celery
sticks on the side. Serves 2.
