Ready in: 30 minutes.
Servings: 4 people.

Ingredients:

• Wings
• 2 lbs chicken wings (about 12 wings)
• 3 Tbsp butter, melted
• 4 Tbsp bottled hot pepper sauce (like Crystal or Frank's Original)
• 1 Tbsp paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• Celery sticks (optional)
• Blue cheese dip
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 1 Tbsp white wine vinegar or white vinegar
• 1 clove garlic, minced

Directions:

• Cut off wing tips (discard or reserve for other use such as making stock).
• Cut wings at the joint.
• Put chicken wing pieces in a plastic bag.
• Set aside. Food safety note: when cutting raw chicken it is best to use a cutting board reserved just for cutting raw chicken.
• Wash thoroughly when finished.
• Do not let raw chicken juices come in contact with other food.
• Create a marinade by stirring together the melted butter, hot pepper sauce, paprika, salt, cayenne pepper and black pepper.
• Pour all but 2 tablespoons of the marinade over the chicken pieces in the plastic bag. (Reserve marinade for coating after the pieces come out of the oven.)
• Seal bag and let marinate at room temperature for half an hour.
• When marinating is finished, drain marinade and discard bag.
• Place wing pieces on the rack of a broiler pan.
• Broil 4 to 5 inches from the heat for about 10 minutes on each side, until chicken is tender and no longer pink.
• Remove from oven and baste with reserved marinade.
• Serve with Blue Cheese Dip and celery sticks.
• Makes approximately 24 pieces (about 12 appetizer servings).
• Blue cheese dip
• Combine dip ingredients - sour cream, mayonnaise, blue cheese, vinegar, and garlic - in a blender or food processor.
• Blend or pulse until smooth.
• Cover and chill up to a week.
