CAJUN CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the Cajun seasoning and brown sugar and stir to combine.
• Rub the seasoning over the wings, covering both sides completely.
• Place the seasoned wings into the air fryer basket, keeping them in a single layer and not overlapping them.
• Cook at 400 degrees F. for 25 minutes - opening the air fryer every 10 minutes to turn the wings.
• While the wings are cooking, prepare the cajun ranch dressing. In a small bowl, add the ranch dressing and 1 teaspoon of Cajun seasoning - stir to combine.
• When the wings are finished cooking, remove from the air fryer and serve immediately with the Cajun ranch dressing.

CAJUN BUTTER CHICKEN WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Place the following ingredients into a pestle and mortar: thyme, onion flakes, garlic flakes, celery seed, and salt. Grind the ingredients together until well broken down. Toss in the cayenne pepper, black pepper, and paprika. Grind those three ingredients into the previously ground ingredients until well incorporated.
• Stir the ground ingredients into the butter until well combined. Set aside.
• Heat enough vegetable oil in a skillet to cover the wings. I used a 12" cast iron skillet filled half way up with vegetable oil. Be sure to heat the oil to optimum chicken-frying temperature. Using a cooking thermometer, try to keep the oil between 350-375 degrees.
• Once the oil is ready, fry each wing for 3-4 minutes per side; just until they are golden brown and crispy. You will need to fry the wings in batches. Do not overcrowd the frying pan.
• Remove the fried wings from the oil and place on the parchment lined baking sheet.
• Once all wings have been fried, toss the still hot wings with the butter mixture.
• Using tongs, place each wing on the parchment lined baking sheet. Bake the wings for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, toss the wings once again in the butter mixture, and bake once again for an additional 10 minutes.
• Garnish serve immediately!
