Buttermilk Deep-Fried Chicken Wings
It’s impossible to beat buttermilk deep-fried chicken wings! They’re crispy, tender and delicious and couldn’t be easier to make. The acidity of the buttermilk helps break down the chicken meat to the perfect tenderness, as well as keep it deliciously moist. Why not serve this guaranteed crowd-pleaser the next time you have guests round?
This recipe involves creating a marinade from buttermilk, seasoning, and spices and leaving the uncooked wings to sit in this mixture. Marinating the chicken like this gives it a wonderfully juicy tenderness and flavoursome taste throughout. The marinade also helps the coating stick to the wings, maximising that crispy goodness! The coated wings are deep-fried until they are a perfect golden brown colour, at which point they are ready to serve.
These buttermilk deep-fried chicken wings go beautifully with ranch dressing, English mustard, or buffalo sauce. If you want to try our take on buttermilk fried wings, why not come on down to our restaurant and sports bar in Milton Keynes? We recommend giving our zingy chipotle flavour a go to add a tastebud-tantalising kick to our juicy buttermilk wings. If you’re feeling brave, why not see how much heat you can handle with our selection of buffalo sauces, which range from mild to extra hot (not for the faint-hearted!)?

Grilled Chicken Wings
Grilled chicken wings are the perfect dish to cook on the BBQ on a hot summer day and enjoy with friends and family. We’re going to share our favourite way to make them with you – it’s so simple that anyone could do it, no cooking skills required!
This method starts off with making the dredge, which is used to lightly coat the chicken before cooking. To do this, you will mix an array of powdered ingredients, including flour, spices and seasonings, which will give the meat its flavour and help create that crispy exterior. The wings are coated in the dredge before being placed on a pre-lit grill. This is where the secret to achieving that amazing smokey BBQ flavour comes in: placing a small chunk of hickory wood amongst the charcoal will infuse the chicken with an irresistible, sweet smokiness.
The raspberry chipotle dipping sauce that accompanies these wings is to die for! It is extremely simple to make, requiring only a few ingredients that you may even already have in your cupboard, combining sweet and spicy flavours to beautifully compliment the crispy grilled chicken wings. Why not give it a go?
If you’re looking for restaurants in Milton Keynes to try out and like the sound of some smokey grilled chicken wings, why not come on down to Wing Kingz and give our version a try with some zesty lemon and pepper flavouring? You won’t regret it, we promise!

Boneless Chicken Wings
If you prefer your chicken without the bone but love eating it wing-style, you have to try this amazing boneless buffalo chicken wing recipe. It cleverly uses chicken breast to recreate the style of traditional wings without the bone for a lighter, less messy eating experience. Boneless wings make an excellent, kid-friendly meal that the whole family can enjoy and are insanely easy to make!
The chicken breast is marinated in a seasoned sauce to allow the flavours to really soak in and recreate the tenderness of traditional wings before being battered with an egg wash and flour mix and deep-fried. The cooked ‘wings’ are then generously smothered in a sauce of your choice, whether that be honey garlic, buffalo, honey BBQ or something else! If you’re going all out or having guests round, why not make all three?
If you’d rather leave the making of the wings and condiments to the professionals, why not come down to our restaurant and sports bar in Milton Keynes? Sit back, relax and watch the game with your mates, a pint in your hand and the most delicious wings on your plate. Sound like heaven? We thought so!

Vegan Chicken Wings
Whether you follow a plant-based diet all the time or would like to try your hand at making more meatless dishes, vegan chicken wings are a great place to start! This vegan chicken wing recipe is sure to blow you away. To replace chicken meat, it uses jackfruit, a large fruit originating from India, known for its ability to mimic the texture of meat when cooked. Seasoned mock chicken broth and liquid smoke give this dish that signature meaty flavour we all know and love, all without a trace of meat in sight!
One of the best things about this recipe is that it beautifully replicates the crispy skin you’d find on actual chicken meat. This is achieved through the use of rice paper, which is wrapped around the seasoned jackfruit ‘meat’. If you are somebody who enjoys eating your wings off the bone, you can include a bamboo spoon in the wing to create the full chicken wing eating experience.
The sauce used to coat these wings is insanely simple with only two ingredients: barbeque sauce and hot sauce. Once smothered in sauce, the wings are coated with a dry rub before cooking. They can be cooked in an air fryer or battered and deep-fried, depending on your preferences. The results of this recipe will have you in complete disbelief that there’s not a hint of chicken involved! These 100% vegan chicken wings look, smell and taste like chicken, right down to the skin. Don’t believe us? Give this recipe a try for yourself!
