These Perfect Buffalo Chicken Wings are my guilty pleasure—there is something about buffalo chicken wings and a wickedly good hot sauce.
These Perfect Buffalo Chicken Wings are comfort food with a kick. They say laid-back, feel-good and laughing with friends…in every tasty mouthful. They remind me of my college days. While I was studying, I worked in a restaurant in Dublin. The wings they made there would rival those found in any American bar. I studied what they were doing very closely, and I think this recipe is the perfect facsimile.
Which Hot Sauce goes into the Perfect Buffalo Chicken Wings?
For me, it’s got to be Frank’s. I’m not saying there aren’t other great hot sauces on the market, but Frank’s just hits the spot for me every time. You can check out their range of sauces here.

Perfect Buffalo Chicken Wings
These Perfect Buffalo Chicken Wings are my guilty pleasure—there is something about buffalo chicken wings and a wickedly good hot sauce.
Ingredients
2 pounds chicken wing pieces
2 teaspoons canola oil
¾ cup Franks Red Hot sauce
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
¼ cup red wine vinegar
4 ounces blue cheese crumbles, I love to use Maytag blue cheese
1 cup sour cream
8 celery stalks, ends trimmed
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 3-inch sticks
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450˚F. Pat dry chicken wings with a paper towel. Toss with 2 teaspoons of canola oil.
- Line a 36 x 18-inch rimmed baking sheet with foil. Spread chicken wings out on the baking sheet, making sure they do not overlap. (You want just one layer.) If needed, use a second baking sheet.
- Roast in the oven for 25 minutes until crispy. Longer if needed.
- Meanwhile in a bowl, mix hot sauce, butter, and vinegar together. Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, mix blue cheese and sour cream together. Set aside.
- Toss the crispy wings in the bowl with the hot sauce. Serve with celery stalks, carrots, and blue cheese dip
