Ingredients:

Chicken Wings

• 3-4 pounds of chicken wings
• 1/3 cup of yellow mustard
• 2-3 tbsp of Louisiana hot sauce
• 2-3 tbsp of all-seasoning salt blend
• 1 tbsp of Maggi seasoning sauce
• 1 tbsp of salt-free lemon pepper
• 1 tbsp of onion powder
• 1 tbsp of garlic powder
• 1½ cups of all-purpose flour, for dredging
• Parmesan cheese, grated, for garnish
• Freshly chopped parsley, for garnish

Cowboy Butter Sauce

• 8 tbsp of unsalted butter
• 1 large lemon, zest and juice
• 1 clove of garlic, grated
• 2 tbsp of fresh or dried chives
• 2 tbsp of freshly chopped parsley
• 1 tbsp of Dijon mustard
• 1 tsp of Tajin, chili lime salt

Directions:

Step 1

Place the clean chicken in a large mixing bowl or baking dish, then add the mustard, salt-free lemon pepper, hot sauce, Maggi seasoning sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and seasoning salt blend, and mix them all together until well coated. Cover it with plastic wrap, then place it in the fridge, and allow it to marinate for about 4 to 6 minutes or overnight.

Step 2

Take the chicken out of the fridge 45 minutes before the cooking time, then add some flour in a paper bag, and dredge small batches of wings shaking them until lightly coated. You can add them straight to the pan or shake off the excess flour with a strainer, then deep fry them in preheated oil around 350°F to 360°F, and allow them to cook for about 8 to 10 minutes or until nice and crispy.

Step 3

Remove the cooked chicken, then transfer them to a baking sheet lined with paper towels or on a wire cooling rack, and continue to cook the rest of the wings. Once done cooking, prepare the sauce. Preheat a deep pan on a stove over low heat, then melt the butter, and add the lemon zest, grated garlic, chives, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, and Tajin.

Step 4

Mix them all together to combine, then allow the sauce to gently simmer for 1 minute, and turn off the heat. Transfer the sauce to a bowl, then give it a good stir to combine everything well, and drizzle it over the cooked chicken wings, dunk them, or toss them all together, your choice. Sprinkle them with some parmesan cheese and freshly chopped parsley, then serve, and enjoy!
