Oh Yeah” Golden Honey Hot Wings

These Party Wings Pack a Powerhouse of flavor—heat, sweet, tart, and tangy! Pairing them with my Creamy Collard Green Dip and Crostini and Get Your Life Right Party Punch will make this an “Oh Yeah, Baby Baby” trio!.

Ingredients

"oh Yeah” Sauce
3⁄4 cup honey
1⁄2 cup water
1⁄2 cup yellow mustard
1⁄4 cup of Chef Jernard Caribbean Island Fire Hot Sauce
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder

2 teaspoons cayenne pepper

Vegetable oil, for frying

4–5 pounds chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats (wing tips discarded)

Kosher salt

Cracked black pepper

Cooking Instructions

01

Bring all the sauce ingredients to a simmer in a wok over medium-high heat. Remove from the heat and set aside.

02

Pour vegetable oil into a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot to no more than halfway up the side. Prop or clip in a deep fry thermometer so that the bulb is submerged in the oil. Heat over medium-high heat until the thermometer registers 350 degrees F. (Alternatively, you can use a deep fryer or air fryer.) Line a platter with paper towels (or set a rack in a rimmed baking sheet).

03

Season the wings with salt and pepper. Working in batches to not crowd the pot, gently drop the wings into the hot oil. Fry until the wings are golden brown and cooked through, 10–15 minutes. Transfer to the paper towels or rack.
