6 tablespoons Melted butter

Directions

~---------For the dish:---------- ~---------For the dressing:---------- FOR THE CHICKEN WINGS, discard tips and heat the oil to a temperature of 375F in a deep-sided pot. Rinse the chicken wings, and pat dry on paper towels. Mix the butter with the Tabasco sauce, and set aside. Fry a batch at a time, being careful not to crowd the pot. Fry for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain in a single layer on paper towels, and repeat until all wings are fried. As the wings are fried, roll them in the butter mixture. Keep the wings warm in a 200F oven in a single layer. While the wings are frying, make the dressing by combining the blue cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream or yogurt, pepper, lemon juice and vinegar in a small mixing bowl. Break up the cheese with a fork, but do not beat until smooth. To serve, place the wings on a platter or plates, and serve with the dressing and some celery sticks. Makes 36 pieces. The dressing can be prepared up to two days in advance and refrigerated.
