Do you like hot wings but do not like the sticky wetness of it all? That’s how I am because there is nothing I hate worse than getting my fingers and hands messy but I do love the taste of chicken wings. I have spent the better part of the last two years trying to figure out how to get the spiciness without all the messiness and I have finally done it! These are quick and super easy. No prep time needed.
Now, let’s get down to the wings! You won’t need many ingredients at all which is always good.
No Mess Hot Wings
Ingredients:
- ½ Cup All Purpose Flour
- ¼ teaspoons each Cayenne Pepper, Paprika, and salt
- 1 bottle of thick hot sauce – I used a 1 lb. bottle of Sriracha hot sauce.
- Enough oil to reach 2 inches deep in a heavy pot or pan.
Directions:
Whisk the flour and spices together.
Using tongs, dip each wing in the Sriracha and then toss in the flour mixture.
Place in a shallow dish and cover then place in the fridge for at least 90 minutes.
Turn pan on with oil and make sure it reaches 375 F.
Carefully place a few wings in the oil and allow to cook on each side for 2-3 minutes each.
Take care not to rip off the coating – that’s the good part – when placing in the oil.
Place on a wire rack to let any oil drip off.
Now, enjoy the wings that are spicy and hot but not gooey and messy!
Serve with traditional blue cheese dressing and celery or try serving with Queso!

Thank you for your support and persistance Lillian! You are the best!
Wings are my very favorite part of the chicken. Especially hot wings. Can’t wait to give your method a try!
ha! That was my mom’s “piece” when she was growing up because there were 8 at the table and wings were all that were left after everyone else got their pieces. She was not too thrilled when wings became all the rage and the cost of them went way up and their availability went way down! 🙂 I hope you enjoy them!
They sound terrific but must be very spicy with a whole bottle of sriracha sauce.
Just voted (finally—it took me a while). Good luck!
Thank you!
