Blue Wings Header

For your next Wednesday Wing night, make some Blue Wings. These are Dusted Deep-Fried Wings coated in a Blue Cheese Dressing. Add Some Zing to your Wings with Lemon Juice. Just a small dash to add some Jazz.

1 lb per person of Dusted Chicken Wings. How are you going to make yours? Naked, Dusted, or Breaded.

Make Wings a Thing for Wednesday Night Wings.

CHICKEN WINGS

Portion the Wings out to about 1 lb of Chicken Wings per person.

Pick up a box of these at your local Cash & Carry. Which are usually a lot cheaper than buying a package of maybe 1-2 lb at the grocery store.

I usually source mine from a Local Meat Shop that has these on sale frequently for 1.99 CAD per lb and sometimes at .99 CAD per lb.

DUSTED CHICKEN WING

For each 1 lb of fully thawed Chicken wings, toss with 1 tsp of each of the below to dust the chicken wings and refrigerate for 30 minutes or more. This allows for the dusting to get fully absorbed in and affect the skin for better crisping.

  • Kosher Salt
  • Baking Powder
  • Cornstarch

NAKED CHICKEN WINGS

Naked Chicken Wings have no dusting or special coating of any kind. Cook as is, marinate, or brine prior to deep frying.

BREADED CHICKEN WINGS

For Breaded Chicken wings, my go-to is JFC Breading. Deep-fried and served up with Blue Cheese Sauce on the side or tossed in the Blue Cheese Sauce.

If you want to make the best homemade fried chicken hands-down, then you need JFC Breading for some Frickin Good Chicken!

DEEP FRYING WINGS

I have a double basket Deep Fryer, so I do 1 lb per basket. Deep-Fried at 350 F for 10 – 12 minutes. Shake the Basket when you place them in and again after a few seconds to ensure separation of the wings.

Blue Cheese Dressing

There are all kinds of Blue Cheese Dressing out there. I used the Litehouse Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing. It is really very good, not just for wings, either.

Once the wings are cooked, toss in a bowl with your desired amount of sauce, or serve the sauce on the side. Include a lemon wedge to squeeze over the wings.
