How to Make Boneless Buffalo Wings
Step1: Cook The Boneless Wings
- Mix together the flour, seasoning blend, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the buttermilk and egg until combined.
- Dip each chicken piece into the egg mixture, and then into the seasoned flour mixture. Place on a plate and set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat several inches of oil to 350°F. Do not let the oil boil.
- Fry the boneless wings for 5-6 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Test one or two wings with an instant-read thermometer to ensure that the internal temperature has reached 165°F.
- Remove the wings from the oil using a slotted spoon and set them aside on a paper towel-lined plate.
Step 2: Make The Buffalo Sauce
- Place the butter, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and vinegar in a saucepan and heat until the butter melts. Whisk vigorously until the sauce thickens up.
- Transfer to a large glass or metal bowl.
Step 3: Serve Boneless Buffalo Wings

- Serve with ranch dressing and celery sticks.
Tips and Tricks
- Chicken wing seasoning typically includes ingredients like black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder, dry mustard, and celery salt. You can buy it from the grocery store or make your own.
- The heat level can be reduced by using a milder hot sauce.
How To Serve Boneless Buffalo Wings
Serve these boneless Buffalo wings as you would regular chicken wings. They’re excellent dipped in creamy blue cheese or ranch dressing. Serve them with raw carrots and celery sticks, crispy fries, or a fresh salad.
How To Store Boneless Buffalo Wings
Leftovers should be cooled to room temperature, placed in an airtight container, and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
Can You Freeze Boneless Buffalo Wings?
Yes. Place the cooled wings in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months. Frozen leftovers should be thawed in the fridge overnight before reheating.
How To Reheat Boneless Buffalo Wings
The best way to reheat boneless Buffalo wings is in the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F and place the wings on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Bake for about 10 minutes, flip the wings to the other side and bake for another 10 minutes or until heated through. The wings can also be reheated in the microwave for about 2 minutes at reduced power until hot.
Is A Boneless Wing The Same As A Chicken Nugget?
No. Chicken nuggets are typically made with ground white or dark meat and then formed into shapes. Boneless wings are made with chicken breast cut into bite-sized pieces. Both products feature a crisp coating and are deep-fried.
Are Boneless Wings Made With Chicken Breasts?
Yes. Boneless wings are made by cutting chicken breasts into bite-size pieces that are then covered in a coating, deep-fried, and tossed in a sauce.
