    Finger food at its best! Whip up a batch of these crispy hot wings for a sure-fire crowd pleaser. Serve with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing (below).

    Cayenne pepper to taste

    1/4 teaspoon celery salt
    2 pounds chicken wings


    Blue Cheese Dipping Sauce:
    1 cup mayonnaise
    1/2 cup sour cream
    1 green onion, chopped
    1 garlic clove, pushed through a press

      Hey, thanks for the response. I was looking at that recipe on the atkins site. It sounds good, but net 5 carbs per serving is a bit high for chicken. I'm hoping to keep it at around 1.. or better yet... 0.

      I just have no idea how to cook wings.

        Buy some Franks RedHot suace. Look at their website http://www.franksredhot.com/recipe-c...?recipeID=5433

        Basically use ANY cayenne pepper sauce make sure it doesn't have sugar but I don't think any of them do. (cayenne pepper, vinegar, garlic, salt) Mix it with butter and slather it on.. but here's the "official" recipe from the web.

        Prep Time: 5 minutes
        Cook Time: 12 minutes
        Ingredients:
        2 1/2 pounds chicken wing pieces
        1/2 cup Frank's® RedHot® Original Cayenne Pepper Sauce
        1/3 cup melted butter
        Directions:
        1. Deep-fry wings in hot oil (400ºF) for 12 minutes until fully cooked and crispy; drain.
        2. Combine Frank`s RedHot Sauce and butter. Dip wings in sauce to coat.
        3. Serve wings with celery and blue cheese dressing, if desired.
        Makes 8 appetizer servings
        Tip: for equally crispy wings, bake wings 1 hour in preheat oven at 425ºF, or grill 30 minutes over medium heat.
        Tex-Mex: 1 tbsp. chili powder; 1/4 tsp. garlic powder.
        Asian: 2 tbsp. teriyaki sauce, 2 tsp. ground ginger.

        Not sure on the carb counts on blue cheese dressing and celery but I skip that part.

        According to fitday.com 15 pieces of "chicken wing with hot pepper sauce" amount to 0.78g of carbs. ... so chow down!
