Since I started making this back in the 90’s I’ve called them my world-famous wings. I wanted to make wings for the big game and wanted them to be something better than just fried wings. Serve with blue cheese or ranch dressing.
Ingredients
- 4 pounds chicken wings
Rub
- 1 ½ tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 tablespoon cumin
- 1 (1.41 ounce) package sazon seasoning
- 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 4 cups oil for frying
- cooking spray
Sauce
- ½ cup butter
- 1 ½ cups hot sauce (such as Frank's RedHot ®)
- 1 ½ cups maple-flavored syrup
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1 ½ tablespoons garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- ¾ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
Place wings in a large glass bowl. Sprinkle 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 tablespoon chili powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, sazon seasoning, and 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper over chicken wings and rub spices into wings to coat completely. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate, 1 hour to overnight.
Step 2
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
Step 3
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat; whisk hot sauce and syrup into butter. Add brown sugar, 1 1/2 tablespoons garlic powder, 1 tablespoon cumin, 1 tablespoon onion powder, 1 tablespoon paprika, 1 tablespoon chili powder, and 3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper; whisk until well-combined and the sauce is hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 4
Pour flour into a shallow bowl. Gently press the chicken wings into the flour to coat and shake off any excess.
Step 5
Working in batches, cook wings in hot oil until the skin is golden and crispy, the meat is no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 5 to 10 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer wings to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Step 6
Dip each chicken wing in the hot sauce mixture and place on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven until sauce starts to caramelize, about 20 minutes.
