Instructions
- Add the chicken, pickle juice, and buttermilk to a plastic zip bag. Close the bag and mix until combined and brine in the refrigerator overnight or for at least 12 hours.
- Preheat your frying oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°F.
- Add the flour to a large pan or casserole dish.
- Remove the wings from the brine and place them into the flour and thoroughly mix until they are completely coated.
- Transfer the wings to the oil and cook for 7-8 minutes or until golden brown and cooked throughout. Note: You will most likely need to do these in batches so that they cook without sticking. Keep warm.
- Sauce: Combine all ingredients into a medium-sized pot and cook over low heat until the butter is melted.
- Transfer the hot sauce and wings to a large bowl and toss to coat.
- Serve with optional dippers and sauces.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: You can make these up to 1 hour ahead of time before serving by keeping them hot on a rack over a sheet tray and in the oven at 275°F.
- How to Reheat: Place them on a rack over a sheet tray and bake in the oven at 350°F for 8-10 minutes or until hot. Likewise, you can heat it on a microwave-safe plate in the microwave until hot.
- How to Store: Cover them and place them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- How to Freeze: I do not recommend freezing, but if you must, cover them and keep them in the freezer for up to 2 months. In addition, do not sauce them if you decide to freeze them. Thaw for 1 day in the refrigerator before reheating.
