Those of you who follow me on twitter will know that this recipe features on the first of my recipe card series which will soon be available in Irish supermarkets. This recipe features Franks Hot Sauce, which I could eat with nearly anything. It’s a recipe anyone could do, and the results rival what you would expect in a restaurant.

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C. Prepare the chicken wings (video tutorial here really great video from Manitoba Chicken, linking for the video only guys!), arrange them on a baking tray and drizzle with olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake for 30 minutes.
  2. To make the buffalo wing sauce, place a small pot over a low heat. Add the butter and allow to melt before adding in the cider vinegar, hot sauce and tomato juice. Remove from the heat and set aside until serving.
  3. Once the wings come out of the oven, leave to cool for 1 minute. Place the chicken wings in a large bowl and pour the sauce on top, tossing with your hands to evenly coat each wing.
  4. For best results, serve immediately in small portions or in the large bowl. A tray of chicken wings should cover 4 people as a starter or 2 as a main.
