The sauce made for the wings has the perfect amount of sweetness and heat, with a dash of vinegar to cut through the bold flavors. You’ll never think of blue cheese dressing as a must with your wings after you try this creamy feta sauce to go along with them.

INGREDIENTS

For the cranberry sweet chili sauce:

One 14-ounce can whole cranberry sauce
1/2 cup distilled white vinegar
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup water
2 jalapenos, seeds removed, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
Salt, to taste
4 tablespoons butter

For the wings:

Canola oil, for deep-frying
3 pounds whole chicken wings
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons chives, chopped, for garnish

For the creamy feta sauce:

1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup creamy feta, crumbled
3 stalk celery, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chives, finely chopped
Juice from 1 lemon

DIRECTIONS

For the cranberry sweet chili sauce:

In a medium saucepan combine all the ingredients except the butter. Cook over medium-high heat until the mixture begins to boil, reduce to a simmer and cook a few minutes more. Add the butter and stir until melted. Remove from heat and reserve.

For the wings:

Preheat the oil in a heavy bottomed pot to 350 degrees. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.

Add the chicken wings to boiling water and cook 8-10 minutes. Remove wings to a paper towel lined sheet tray to dry completely.

In a large bowl combine the flour, salt, smoked paprika and garlic powder. Coat chicken wings in flour mixture and add to the oil, in batches. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, 4-5 minutes.

Toss the chicken wings in the cranberry sauce. Garnish with chives.
