Paleo Buffalo Wings

Wings Ingredients

  • 1-2 lb package of chicken wings
  • Avocado Oil
  • Garlic Powder
  • Black Pepper    

Wings Instructions

  1. Coat the chicken wings with avocado oil in a large mixing bowl.
  2. Season chicken wings with garlic powder and black pepper, mix in a bowl with hands to be sure evenly coated.
  3. Fire up the grill to about 400 degrees.
  4. Add wings to the grill and turn every few minutes. Cook until slightly charred and crispy on the skin for about 20 minutes. Keep an eye out for flareups you don’t want the flame to burn the skin too much.

  

Sauce Ingredients

  • 1 cup Hot Sauce (we used Franks)
  • 1/2 cup Coconut Oil
  • 1/2 cup Butter Flavored Shortening or Ghee (clarified butter)
  • 2 TBSP Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 handful cilantro, minced (optional)

Buffalo Sauce Instructions

  1. Melt the shortening or ghee and coconut oil in a small saucepan until completely melted.
  2. Combine the hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, and garlic in a mixing bowl. Use a whisk or emersion blender to mix until blended thoroughly. 
  3. As you blend the sauce slowly drizzle in the melted coconut oil and shortening or ghee. The sauce should have a smooth texture. 
  4. Stir in a handful of minced cilantro for a garlic-cilantro flavor.
  5. Toss or dip the wings in the buffalo sauce and serve with the dipping sauce of your choice.
