Ingredients

Scale

Buffalo Wing Sauce

  • 1 cup Frank’s Red Hot Sauce
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing

Instructions

  1. Melt Butter: In a small saucepan over low heat, gently melt the unsalted butter, taking care not to burn or brown it.
  2. Combine with Hot Sauce: Add 1 cup of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce to the melted butter and whisk thoroughly until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
  3. Heat and Add Dressing: Continue heating the sauce through on low heat, then whisk in ¼ cup of Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing until fully incorporated and smooth.
  4. Toss with Wings: Transfer the completed Buffalo wing sauce into a bowl, then add your cooked chicken wings or preferred food item. Toss evenly to coat the wings completely with the sauce before serving.

Notes

  • Use unsalted butter to control the salt level in the sauce.
  • Adjust the amount of hot sauce depending on your preferred spice level.
  • The Italian dressing adds a unique tangy flavor – feel free to substitute for a similar vinaigrette if desired.
  • Ensure the sauce is hot but not boiling when combining ingredients to preserve flavor balance.
  • Best served immediately after tossing with wings for optimum taste and texture.
