Serves: 6

Prep Time: 55-60 mins 

“There’s this cute restaurant called ‘The Local’ in Newton Massachusetts. We went on a snowy Sunday afternoon for a quick lunch and we ordered the most affordable dish on the menu which was the wings. It was a great choice, hands down the best wings we’ve ever had in our lives.”

Ingredients: 

1.5 kg Wings 

1/4 C Flour 

1 tsp Baking Powder

1/2 tsp Salt 

1 tsp Pepper 

1/2 tsp Onion Powder

1/4 C Hot sauce 

1/4 C Sweet Chili Sauce 

1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper 

Blue Cheese Dip: 

1 Tub Sour Cream

1 Log Blue Cheese, crumbled

1/3 C Fresh Cream

Salt and Pepper to taste 

1 tsp Lemon Zest 

2 Tbs Chopped Dill

Method: 

Preheat oven to 200 degrees Celsius.

Line a baking sheet with baking paper. 

Place wings in a bowl, add flour, baking powder and the rest of the spices, toss and coat the wings evenly. Dust off the wings and place in a single layer on the baking sheet.

Bake for 40 mins until lightly golden and crispy. Then set aside. 

In another bowl, mix together the hot sauce, sweet chili sauce, butter and brown sugar together. Pour over the wings and coat evenly. 

Bake in the oven for another 10 mins. 

For the blue cheese dressing, blend all the ingredients together until well blended. 

Serve the wings warm with the dip.
