Difficulty: Easy

Prep time: 10 minutes

Cook time: 25 minutes

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • ½ cup (1 stick) butter
  • ⅓ cup Paula Deen Hot Sauce
  • 2 pounds chicken wings, each wing cut at joint to yield wingette and drumette
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • oil, for spraying

Directions

To make buffalo sauce, in a small saucepan over medium heat, combine butter and The Lady & Sons Signature Hot Sauce and heat just until butter melts; keep warm on stovetop. Wash wings, pat dry, and place in a large bowl. Add peanut oil, salt, and cayenne pepper and toss to thoroughly coat wings.

Working in batches of 8, place wings in air fryer basket. Set temperature to 400 degrees, and air fry for 25 minutes. Shake occasionally, spraying with oil once during cooking. Repeat with remaining chicken.

In a large bowl, toss fried chicken in buffalo sauce, and remove with a slotted spoon to a serving dish.
