18		Chicken wings
6 tablespoons	90ml	Melted butter
1/4 cup	59ml	Tabasco sauce
3		Celery stalks
1/4 lb	113g / 4oz	Blue cheese or gorgonzola
1/2 cup	118ml	Mayonnaise

Recipe Instructions

FOR THE CHICKEN WINGS, cut into sections and discard tips.

Heat the oil to a temperature of 375F in a deep-sided pot.

Rinse the chicken wings, and pat dry on paper towels.

Mix the butter with the Tabasco sauce, and set aside.

Fry a batch at a time, being careful not to crowd the pot. Fry for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain in a single layer on paper towels, and repeat until all wings are fried.

As the wings are fried, roll them in the butter mixture. Keep the wings warm in a 200F oven in a single layer.

While the wings are frying, make the dressing by combining the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream or yogurt, pepper, lemon juice and vinegar in a small mixing bowl.

Break up the cheese with a fork, but do not beat until smooth.

To serve, place the wings on a platter or plates, and serve with the dressing and some celery sticks.

Makes 36 pieces.

The dressing can be prepared up to two days in advance and refrigerated.
