1. Classic Frank's Hot Wings: A UK Twist
This recipe provides a foundational understanding of creating delicious Frank's Hot Wings. We'll enhance the classic recipe with readily available UK ingredients to create a truly satisfying dish.
Preparing Your Wings:
- Choose your wings: Opt for good quality, fresh chicken wings. You can often find great deals on wings at your local butcher or supermarket.
- Separate the drumettes and flats: This helps ensure even cooking.
- Pat them dry: Thoroughly dry the wings with paper towels to promote crispy skin.
- Season generously: Using a mix of salt, black pepper, and paprika, season your wings liberally.
The Frank's RedHot Marinade:
- 1 cup Frank's RedHot Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (Lea & Perrins is a UK classic!)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika (adds a delightful depth of flavour)
Combine all ingredients in a bowl, ensuring the wings are thoroughly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or preferably overnight in the fridge for maximum flavour penetration.
Cooking Your Wings:
- Baking: Preheat oven to 200°C (180°C fan/Gas Mark 6). Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
- Deep Frying: Heat oil to 175°C. Fry wings for 8-10 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. This method yields extra crispy wings.
2. Spicy Honey Garlic Frank's Hot Wings
This recipe balances the heat of Frank's RedHot with the sweetness of honey and the savoury depth of garlic. It's a crowd-pleaser that perfectly embodies the UK's love for flavour combinations.
The Honey Garlic Glaze:
- 1/2 cup Frank's RedHot Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
- 1/4 cup honey (try a local UK honey for a unique flavour)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
Whisk all ingredients together until well combined.
Preparing and Cooking:
Follow steps 1-4 from the Classic Frank's Hot Wings recipe. After baking or frying the wings to your preference, toss them in the honey garlic glaze. Return to the oven for a further 5-10 minutes to allow the glaze to caramelise. This creates a sticky, sweet and spicy delight.
3. Frank's Hot Wings with Blue Cheese & Celery: The UK Classic
This recipe acknowledges a beloved British pairing: chicken wings and a creamy blue cheese dip. We'll elevate it with the fiery punch of Frank's.
The Blue Cheese Dip:
- 4 ounces blue cheese, crumbled
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tablespoon buttermilk [optional, adds tang]
- 1 teaspoon chives, chopped
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix until smooth. Adjust milk/buttermilk for desired consistency. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavours to meld.
Preparing and Cooking:
Follow steps 1-4 from the Classic Frank's Hot Wings recipe, then use your preferred cooking method (baking or frying). Serve immediately with your delicious homemade blue cheese dip and celery sticks. The contrast of creamy blue cheese against the fiery Frank’s Hot Wings is a true taste sensation.
Tips for Perfect Frank's Hot Wings
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Overcrowding will lower the temperature and result in soggy wings. Cook wings in batches for optimal results.
- Use a meat thermometer: Ensure your wings reach an internal temperature of 74°C (165°F) for food safety.
- Experiment with different Frank's varieties: Frank's offers a range of hot sauces, from Original to Sweet Chili, allowing you to tailor the heat level to your preferences. Try incorporating other flavours like smoky chipotle or sweet mango habanero, for example.

Q2: What can I serve with Frank's Hot Wings? Classic sides include celery sticks, carrot sticks, blue cheese dressing, ranch dressing, and potato wedges.
Q3: How do I adjust the spice level? You can reduce the amount of Frank's RedHot sauce in the marinade or glaze to lower the heat. Conversely, add more for a fiery kick! Experiment to find your perfect spice level.
