How to make Buffalo Wings
- Mix the black pepper powder, degi mirch powder, garam masala, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add chicken wings and toss until they are fully coated.
Pierce the wings with a fork or a knife to help the spices penetrate the meat. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour to marinate.
In another bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing barbeque sauce, tomato sauce, honey, chilli flakes, garlic powder, and black salt until combined.
Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add chopped garlic and cook until it turns slightly golden.
Place the marinated wings in the pan and cook for 15-20 minutes. Flip them occasionally until the chicken is golden brown and fully cooked.
Once the wings are cooked, pour the prepared sauce over them and toss until fully coated. Cook for another for 3-4 minutes.
Check the seasoning and adjust to taste. Add lemon juice and mix for a few seconds.
Garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot.
Tips & Tricks
Use fresh wings instead of frozen ones.
Depending on your preference, you can adjust the amount of chilli flakes and black pepper powder used in the recipe. If you like your wings to be spicier, add more chilli flakes or black pepper.
Taste the wings before adding lemon juice to adjust the seasoning as needed. If the sauce is too sweet, add more tomato sauce or black salt to balance the flavours.
The number of people this recipe can serve can vary depending on the size of the chicken drums and the portion size per person.
FAQS
How do I make crispy Buffalo Wings at home?

What are some dietary substitutions for Buffalo Wings?
If you're looking for dietary substitutions, you can use cauliflower florets instead of chicken wings for a vegetarian option. For a gluten-free version, ensure that your sauces are gluten-free. You can also use air frying or baking methods instead of frying to make them healthier.
How should I store leftover Buffalo Wings?
To store leftover Buffalo Wings, let them cool completely, then place them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be stored for up to 3 days. For longer storage, consider freezing them; just make sure to wrap them tightly to prevent freezer burn.
What can I serve with Buffalo Wings for a complete meal?
