Thai Buffalo Wings

  4.8 – 8 reviews  

An old French recipe for sea pie was passed down from my great-grandmother to my mother, who subsequently shared it with my family and I. When they see the name, a lot of people assume it has something to do with fish or seafood, but it doesn’t. Six pates, the name in French, translates to six doughs in English.

Yield: 15 chicken wings

Ingredients

  1. 15 chicken wings
  2. ½ cup all-purpose flour
  3. oil for deep frying
  4. ¼ cup butter
  5. ¼ cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot®)
  6. 1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha®)
  7. ½ teaspoon Thai red chile paste
  8. 2 tablespoons Asian sweet chile sauce (such as Mae Ploy® Sweet Chilli Sauce)
  9. 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

  1. Toss chicken wings with the flour in a large non-porous bowl to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate 60 to 90 minutes.
  2. Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  3. Combine butter, hot pepper sauce, chile-garlic sauce, Thai red chile paste, Asian sweet chile sauce, and honey in a small saucepan over low heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the butter is melted completely and the sauce is well blended, about 5 minutes; set aside.
  4. Fry the chicken wings in the hot oil until they become golden brown and are no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken wings to a serving bowl.
  5. Pour the sauce over the chicken wings; stir to coat.
  6. We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.

I made these without the flour in my deep fryer. They were amazing I did change some stuff. I did 1/4 cup of honey and 2 tbsp of hot sauce. Really good. And crunchy!
Anne Ray
Very delicious. I added more chili paste and less hot sauce. Family loves spicy. As suggested I added worcestershire and lime juice.
Vicki Ryan
That sauce is the bomb. The wings were great, thanks for the recipe.
Paula Morris
Love these wings. I did as one suggested and used 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce, but I also added some red pepper flakes (to taste). I eat these quite often. Thanks for the recipe.
Anna Gonzalez

Though enjoyable, as written this doesn’t scream “Thai” or even “Asian” to me- it screams Frank’s Red Hot. There just isn’t enough Asian flavor to compete. I ended up adding 2 tsp soy sauce, 2 tsp lime juice, upping the Asian sweet chili sauce to 1/4 cup, and sprinkling with cilantro before serving. Yum! Did make with chicken legs rather than wings because I had a whole package to use up 🙂
