Ingredients

For the chicken:

1 lb boneless chicken breast or chicken tenders
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
Vegetable oil for frying

For the buffalo sauce:

½ cup hot sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot)
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 tbsp honey (optional, for sweetness)
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
½ tsp garlic powder

For serving:

Blue cheese or ranch dressing (optional)
Celery sticks and carrot sticks (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the boneless chicken breast or chicken tenders into bite-sized pieces.
In a shallow bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
Dip each piece of chicken into the flour mixture, ensuring it's evenly coated. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the breaded chicken pieces to the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the cooked chicken from the oil and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for an additional 10 minutes to ensure crispiness.
While the chicken is baking, prepare the buffalo sauce by combining hot sauce, melted butter, honey (if using), Worcestershire sauce (if using), and garlic powder in a bowl.
Once the chicken is done baking, transfer it to a large mixing bowl and pour the buffalo sauce over it. Toss gently to coat evenly.
Serve the homemade boneless buffalo chicken wings with optional blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping, along with celery sticks and carrot sticks on the side.
Enjoy these flavorful wings as a delicious appetizer or part of a meal!

Notes

Pro Tip: For extra crispy wings, refrigerate the breaded chicken pieces for 15-30 minutes before frying. This helps the coating adhere better and results in a crunchier texture.

Variation: Spice up your buffalo sauce by adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or a pinch of smoked paprika for a unique twist. You can also experiment with different types of hot sauce to customize the heat level to your preference. Want a milder option? Swap the hot sauce for barbecue sauce for a tangy-sweet flavor profile. Get creative and make these Boneless Buffalo Chicken Wings your own!
