Combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt in a small bowl.
-
2
If the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them.
-
3
Put the wings into a large bowl and sprinkle the flour mixture over them, coating each wing evenly.
-
4
Put the wings in the refrigerator for 60 to 90 minutes.
-
5
(This will help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.)
-
6
Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees.
-
7
You want just enough oil to cover the wings entirely -- an inch or so deep at least.
-
8
Combine the butter, hot sauce, ground pepper, and garlic powder in a small saucepan over low heat.
-
9
Heat until the butter is melted and the ingredients are well blended.
-
10
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.
-
11
Remove the wings from the oil to a paper towel to drain.
-
12
But don't let them sit too long, because you want to serve the wings hot.
-
13
Quickly put the wings into a large bowl.
-
14
Add the hot sauce and stir, coating all the wings evenly.
-
15
You could also use a large plastic container with a lid for this.
-
16
Put all the wings inside the container, add the sauce, put on the lid, then shake.
-
17
Serve with Bleu cheese dressing and celery sticks on the side.
