      Title: Hooters Buffalo Chicken Wings 
 Categories: Appetizers, Poultry 
      Yield: 2 servings 
  
           Vegetable oil for frying 
    1/4 c  Butter 
    1/4 c  Louisiana Hot Sauce 
      1 ds Ground pepper 
      1 ds Garlic powder 
    1/2 c  Flour 
    1/4 ts Paprika 
    1/4 ts Cayenne pepper 
    1/4 ts Salt 
     10    Chicken pieces 
 
--------------------------------ON THE   
SIDE-------------------------------- 
           Bleu cheese salad dressing 
           Celery sticks 
  
  Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees. You want just enough oil to   
cover 
  the wings entirely -- an inche or so deep at least. Combine the butter,   
hot 
  sauce, ground pepper, and garlic powder in a small saucepan over low   
heat. 
  Heat until the butter is melted and teh ingredients are well blended. 
  Combine the flour, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt in a small bowl. If 
  the wings are frozen, be sure to defrost and dry them. Put the wings   
into a 
  large bowl and sprinkle the flour mixture over them, coating each wing 
  evenly. Put the wings in the refrigerator for 60 to 90 minutes. (This   
will 
  help the breading to stick to the wings when fried.) 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. Remove the wings from the oil to a paper 
  towel to drain. But don't let them sit too long, because you want to   
serve 
  the wings hot. Quickly put the wings into a large bowl. Add the hot   
sauce 
  and stir, coating all the wings evenly. You could also use a large   
plastic 
  container with a lid for this. Put all the wings inside the container,   
add 
  the sauce, put on the lid, then shake. Serve with Bleu cheese dressing   
and 
  celery sticks on the side. Serves 2.
