Steps To Make Gordon Ramsay Hot Chicken Wings
1. Season The Skin
Nicely dust the chicken flesh with garlic powder and sprinkle salt and rub it all over the chicken.
Add smoked paprika to the wings to give a smoky taste to the wings along with the richness of the other flavors added.
2. Pan Fry The Wings
Place the saucepan over medium heat and add canola oil to it. As the oil gets hot, transfer the wings into the pan and saute. To give them a nice sear add a bit of butter corn and cook until it gets golden brown.
Roll them around quickly and let them get dark caramelized. After a great sear, give a little toss of ground black pepper to the wings.
3. Spice It Up
As the chicken wings are hot, they take the pepper so much easier as opposed to putting them in the beginning.
4. Bake In The Oven
Once the spices sit in and those wings are dredged in paprika, garlic powder, and sauce, bake them in the preheated oven (375°F) for about 15 minutes at 165°F until they’re crispy and golden brown.
5. Add Juice And Butter For A Glossy Look
To glaze them, drizzle a large teaspoon of juice from the saucepan and add 2 knobs of butter. As the butter melts, this gives a glossy coat to the wings.
