Sriracha buffalo wings recipe

Ingredients

• 2 cups (500 ml) peanut oil
• 2 lb (900 g) chicken wings, tips removed
• ½ cup (125 ml) flour
• 4 tbsp Sriracha sauce
• 2 tbsp butter, melted
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground black pepper
• Chopped scallions, for garnish

1. In a large pan on medium-high heat, heat oil to about 375°F (190°C).
2. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
3. Place chicken wings in a sturdy plastic bag with flour, and shake until wings are covered—you may need to do this in 2 batches. Place half the wings gently into pan, and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until golden. Flip and cook for 6 minutes on other side. Remove to a plate lined with paper towels, and repeat with second batch of wings.
4. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine Sriracha, butter, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Add fried wings and toss to coat.
5. Place on a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack. Bake for 25 minutes.
6. Serve hot and sprinkled with chopped scallions.
