Frank's hot wings with blue cheese celery
Frank's wings are tangy and spiced, halfway to fully cooked, and built for pairing with something cool. Celery sticks and blue cheese dressing give you the classic contrast that makes wings sing.

To buy
- 1 bunch celery
- 2 ounces blue cheese crumbles
From your shelf
- 1 package Frank's RedHot original cayenne pepper chicken wing sections
Staples
- 2 tablespoons butter
- to taste salt
- to taste pepper
- Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it foams, then add the Frank's wings straight from the package and spread them in an even layer. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice, until the wings are hot throughout and the edges are starting to brown; they will be done when you hear them sizzle when you stir.
- While the wings cook, trim 1 bunch of celery and cut each stalk into sticks about 4 inches long. Season 2 ounces of blue cheese crumbles with a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper, then mix with 3 tablespoons of water to make a thick dip.
- Pile the hot wings on a plate with the celery sticks and blue cheese dip alongside.
Note Swap the blue cheese for ranch if you prefer. Leftovers keep for two days in the fridge and are good cold or reheated in the oven at 350°F [175°C] until warm. Serve with rice or fries on the side to soak up the sauce.
