Buffalo Wing Rub

We have had numerous requests for a quick and easy buffalo wing recipe and have tested this one thoroughly in our kitchen. As we prefer healthier eating habits we like to bake our wings in the oven instead of deep frying them and this one is perfect for this style of cooking.

A quick and easy buffalo wing recipe - take 2 lbs of chicken wings and cut off the wing tips. Cut the wings at the joint for two separate pieces. Use 4-6 tablespoons of wing seasoning and evenly coat both sides of all the wings. Be sure to work the mixture into the meat with your hands. Place the wings in several large ziplock bags and refrigerate for 2-4 hours (the longer you refrigerate the more the seasoning works it way all the way through the meat).

Place the wings on a broiler pan rank and cook 5-6 inches from the heat for 9-10 minutes per side or until the chicken is cooked all the way through (no longer pink). Remove the chicken wings from the oven and sprinkle a bit more seasoning on for additional flavor.

We have also had success using our Buffalo Wing Rub on Cauliflower Buffalo Wings.

This Buffalo style dry rub has a nice balance of sweet from the brown sugar with some subtle nuanced heat from the chili powder, smoked paprika and habanero.

For a quick dip mix 1/2 cup low fat sour cream, 1/2 cup low fat mayo, 2/3 cup of crumbled blue cheese and 1 tablespoon of white wine. Vegetables are optional.

Hand blended from brown sugar, garlic, chili powder, domestic paprika, cumin, yellow mustard powder, black pepper, onion, sea salt and organic habanero powder.

For some other out-of-the-ordinary wing seasonings try these favorites - Cajun Rub Hot Heat, Chipotle Rub, Texas Chicken Rub and Manzanillo Mexican Seasoning that are all sure to please.
