Buffalo Wing Sauce Ingredients
- 1 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing
Instructions
- Melt Butter: In a small saucepan over low heat, gently melt the unsalted butter to avoid browning or separating. Stir occasionally to ensure it melts evenly.
- Combine with Hot Sauce: Once the butter is melted, add 1 cup of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce to the saucepan. Whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and fully combined, forming the base of the Buffalo sauce.
- Heat and Add Dressing: Continue to warm the sauce over low heat so it is heated through but not boiling. Then whisk in ¼ cup of Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing until the sauce is well incorporated and slightly tangy.
- Toss with Wings: Transfer the finished Buffalo wing sauce to a serving bowl. Add cooked chicken wings or your preferred food item, and toss gently but completely to coat every piece evenly with the sauce. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For milder sauce, reduce the amount of hot sauce or add more butter.
- Ensure the butter is melted on low heat to prevent burning.
- Use freshly made or warmed chicken wings for best coating.
- The addition of Italian dressing adds a unique tangy twist that balances the heat.
- Can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; reheat gently before use.
