Ingredients
WINGS
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- ¼ cup yellow mustard
- ¼ cup buffalo sauce
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- vegetable oil, for frying
SAUCE
- ¼ cup honey
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice, about 1 medium lemon
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- To a large bowl, add wings, mustard, and buffalo sauce. Toss to coat.
- To a separate bowl, add flour. Working one at a time, add the coated wings to the flour and toss to coat. Shake off excess and place on the baking sheet.
FIRST FRY
- Fill a large pot with oil until it reaches halfway up the pot. Heat the oil to 375°F, using a thermometer to check the temperature. While the oil is heating, set a wire rack on top of a separate baking sheet.
- Working 2-3 wings at a time to maintain the oil temperature, add the wings to the hot oil and fry for 6-8 minutes, or until crispy and golden brown.
- Carefully remove the wings from the oil and place them on the wire rack.
SECOND FRY
- Bring the oil temperature back up to 375°F. Once hot, place the fried wings back into the oil for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from the oil and set on the wire rack to allow excess oil to drain off as you make the sauce.
SAUCE
- In a medium bowl add melted butter, honey, lemon juice, and salt. Stir to combine. Set adide.
ASSEMBLY
- Place the fried wings into a large bowl.
- Pour the sauce over the wings and toss to coat.
