Ingredients

For the Blue Cheese Sauce:

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (recommended: Cabrales)
  • 2 tablespoons finely grated red onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

For the Hot Wings:

For the Blue Cheese Sauce:

Directions

Stir together the yogurt, blue cheese, red onion, cilantro and salt and pepper in a bowl. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

For the Hot Wings:

Heat 2-inches of the oil in a large, high-sided pan until it reaches 375 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer.

Stir together the flour, salt, pepper, to taste, 2 teaspoons ancho chili powder and garlic powder in a shallow bowl. Season the wings with salt and pepper and add the wings in batches to the flour mixture to lightly coat and tap off excess flour. Add the wings in batches and cook until golden brown and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and place on a plate lined with paper towels.

Bring the vinegar, chipotle puree, 2 tablespoons chili powder and New Mexico chili powder to a simmer in a large high-sided saute pan over medium heat. Remove the mixture from the heat and whisk in the mustard, salt, honey, and butter until smooth. Add the wings to the mixture and toss to coat. Garnish with cilantro and serve with jicama sticks and blue cheese sauce.

    I made these wings last night and thought the sauce was great but I used barely any Red Wine Vinegar after reading the other reviews. Had I put the 1/2 Cup suggested I think it would have overpowered everything else. The dipping sauce is amazing though!!

    The chile sauce was really tasty and delicious, but next time I would probably halve the amount of vinegar, because the vinegar was almost too overpowering. I tasted the sauce when it was almost done and added more honey and more chilies from the can of chile in adobo sauce to try to tone down the vinegar, but the vinegar was still very strong. Even so, the sauce was very good and I will make again.

    I made these this past weekend. They were so good that I had to make another batch! My bf and I loved them! I highly recommend. They're spicy, but not too spicy, it's just the right amount of heat, sweetness and tang. Love them!
