Cajun Hot Wings

Although my sister and I use to fight for the chicken wing, wings were once thought of as the most useless piece of a chicken worthy only of the stock or soup pot. Nowadays, hot chicken wings are all the rage as appetizers and party fare. Originally gaining their fame as Buffalo wings, the chicken wings became popular with virtually every ethnic group; the Cajun being no exception. Spice up dat poulet (chicken)!!!

Ingredients

  • 8 pounds chicken wings, cut in half at the joint
  • 1 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 1/3 cup Louisiana Hot Sauce
  • 1 1/3 cup ketchup
  • 12 tsp Cajun Seasonings (with salt) or Season All

Directions

Step 1

Bake the wings at 350 degrees or grill until golden brown; about 45 minutes to 1 hour turning over halfway during the cooking process.

Step 2

Mix butter/margarine, Louisiana Hot Sauce, ketchup and Cajun seasoning. Brush sauce to both sides of on cooked wings.

You may add additional Cajun Seasonings over the saucy wings to adjust to your hot, hotter, or hottest palate.

Step 3

Put the saucy wings back in oven at 400 degrees for 10 to 15 more minutes. This helps to stick on the sauce and make it less juicy. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing as a dipping sauce to cut the heat.
