The Key to My Man's Heart

Hot Wings - better than Wingers

2-3 chicken breast, cut into pieces or chicken tenders
flour
all seasoning

11/3 cup Franks RedHot Original pepper sauce
1 2/3 cups brown sugar
1/3 tsp apple cider vinegar

Mix the flour and seasoning (just eye the measurements, enough to bread all of your chicken) and bread all the pieces of chicken. Allow to rest for a few minutes to allow the flour to adhere to the chicken. Pan fry in your choice of oil. I find that melted vegetable shortening works very well for both taste and color. Make sure not to crowd the pan with chicken. Just do a few pieces at a time and have a preheated oven handy to keep the already-cooked pieces hot.

When you're almost done with the chicken, combine the pepper sauce, brown sugar, and cider vinegar in a saucepan. Heat it until sugar is dissolved. DO NOT ALLOW TO BOIL!

Spoon over chicken and serve with celery, salad, and ranch dressing. Makes plenty for two.
