Question
I am going to a supper bowl party tomorrow and have to bring some chicken wings and as an appetizer and am not sure how to fix this.  I really need your help.  

I have tried these expert pages before but no one ever answered me.  It was on medical and recipe's.  So if you don't get back to me I won't be one bit suprised.  But thanks any way and have a good day.

Answer
Hi Kathy!  I'm sorry to hear you've been disappointed by Allexerpts.com.  Hopefully, I can help you out with this question.

You don't say how many people you plan to serve the wings to, or what type of wings you like (i.e. barbeque, honey garlic, extra-hot, etc.), so I'm sending you a recipe for the most popular type - buffalo wings.

5 lb Fresh large chicken wings
Peanut oil for frying
Hot Sauce
Spicy Barbeque Sauce
Melted Margarine
Celery Sticks
Chunky Blue Cheese Salad Dressing

1. Split the wings at the joint and remove the tips.
2. Spread the wings out on a rack in a pan and refrigerate so they drain of moisture/blood. Preferred is 24 hours, but even a couple of hours will help. This helps produce crispier wings.
3. Heat deep fryer to 350-360 degrees.
4. Fry wings in small batches until done, about 8-10 minutes, depending on the equipment.
5. Drain of excess oil and immediately place in large bowl and coat with hot sauce & melted margarine.
6. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese.

NOTE:The amounts of Hot Sauce and Margarine are really to taste. Medium 'HEAT' Wings are approx. obtained by
using 1 cup of Hot Sauce for the entire 5 lbs. and 1/2 cup of melted margaine.

Experiment: some people don't use the melted marg. at all and just vary the volume of hot sauce to get the taste they want.

Please let me know if you had a different type of chicken wing in mind.  Enjoy the game!
