01
Step 1
Start by heating your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Next, heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot until it reaches 375°F. While the oil heats up, rinse the wings and pat them completely dry with paper towels.

Step 2
Carefully fry the wings in batches of about 5 or 6 for around 10 minutes until they’re partially cooked. Once done, drain them on paper towels and let them cool down a bit. Then, pop the wings back into the hot oil for a second fry, this time for 6 to 8 minutes, until they turn golden brown and crispy. Drain again on paper towels.

Step 3
Toss the wings in a big bowl with your hot wing sauce, making sure each one is well coated. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the baking sheet and brush any leftover sauce over the top. Pop them in the oven for about 15 minutes, until the sauce dries up a bit and sticks nicely to the wings.

How to serve
Serve the wings hot with celery sticks and a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing. Add some crunchy carrot sticks or a fresh salad to balance the flavors. They work great as finger food for parties or a casual dinner.
Storage & leftovers
Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer to keep the skin crispy. Avoid microwaving, as it can make the wings soggy.
