Step by Step Method

Step 1

In a deep fryer or a large skillet cover the bottom of the pan with canola oil (about 1/2 inch), and heat until hot.

Step 2

While the oil heats up prepare the flour mixture; add one cup flour to a medium size bowl or a large zip lock bag, add the Tony Chacheres Creole Seasoning and lightly mix until blended. Add the drumettes and lightly coat with the flour mixture.

Step 3

Add the drumettes to the pan and cook for about 20-25 minutes (turning the drumettes halfway through) or until the chicken is cooked, lightly browned, and the juice run clear.

Step 4

Remove the chicken to baking rack or a pan covered with paper towels to drain off remaining grease.

Step 5

In a medium size bowl melt the butter in the microwave. Add the hot sauce and mix until blended.

Step 6

Dip and coat each drumette into the hot sauce mixture until completely coated. Place on a baking sheet that has been lined with foil and sprayed with non stick spray.
