If you’re gearing up for the Super Bowl and need a tasty addition to your menu, consider whipping up some homemade boneless wings. These wings are not only easy to make but also delicious, featuring a crispy buttermilk breading and a zesty buffalo sauce that’s sure to be a hit.
Here’s a simpler way to understand the recipe:
Ingredients:
- Chicken: Use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into 2-inch chunks for easy cooking.
- Seasonings: A blend of onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Breading Station:
- Eggs and Buttermilk: These wet ingredients help the dry breading stick to the chicken.
- Flour and Panko Breadcrumbs: These create the crispy outer layer. Tip: Pulse the breadcrumbs for a finer texture.
Instructions:
- Prepare the Chicken: Season the chicken chunks and set aside.
- Set Up Breading Station: Organize three bowls for the flour, egg and buttermilk mixture, and breadcrumbs.
- Bread the Chicken: Coat each piece of chicken first in flour, then in the egg mixture, and finally in the breadcrumbs.
- Cook: Fry the breaded chicken in hot oil until golden and cooked through. Alternatively, you can bake or air fry for a healthier option.
- Serve: Toss the fried chicken in buffalo sauce and serve with your choice of dipping sauce like ranch or blue cheese.
Additional Tips:
- Cooking Options: Besides frying, you can bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 16 minutes or air fry at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 8 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Storing: Cool any leftovers before storing in the fridge or freezer. Reheat in the oven or air fryer to keep them crispy.
This recipe is versatile, allowing you to use different sauces or seasonings to suit your taste. Enjoy your game day with these irresistible homemade boneless wings!
