These spicy hot wings offer a vibrant hit of heat and a satisfyingly crisp texture without the heavy breading of traditional fried chicken. By using a light dusting of cornflour and shallow frying in a neutral oil, this diabetes-friendly recipe achieves a golden, crunchy finish while remaining mindful of carbohydrate intake. The sauce, a simple yet punchy emulsion of Scotch Bonnet pepper and unsalted butter, balances fiery heat with a smooth, savoury richness that coats each piece perfectly.
Ideal as a protein-rich snack or a main course served alongside a crunchy green salad, these wings are effortless to prepare for a weekend treat. The addition of fresh jalapeño slices provides an extra layer of texture and a bright, aromatic pepper flavour. Whether you are cooking for a crowd or looking for a spicy homemade alternative to takeaway, these wings deliver authentic flavour with a lighter touch.

Ingredients for Hot Wings
2 tablespoons Scotch Bonnet Hot Sauce
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, at room temperature
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 whole chicken wings, wings and drumettes separated, wing tips removed
1 tablespoon cornflour
Grapeseed or other neutral oil
1/2 jalapeño, very thinly sliced crosswise
How to make Hot Wings
In a small saucepan, heat the sauce over medium heat until hot. Whisk in the butter, a little at a time. Continue whisking until the mixture is emulsified. Whisk in salt to taste, then reduce the heat to low to keep the sauce warm.
Sprinkle salt and pepper all over the chicken and let stand for 5 minutes to release the moisture on the skin. Sprinkle the cornflour all over the chicken and toss until evenly coated.
Fill a large skillet with oil to a depth of 1/2 inch. Heat over high heat until hot and shimmering. (When the oil is ready, a cube of bread dropped into it will turn golden in 15 seconds.)
Reduce the heat to medium and add the drumettes first, then the wings in a single layer. Cook, turning the chicken with tongs, for 4 minutes. Raise the heat to high. Cook, turning occasionally, until the chicken is golden brown outside and no longer pink inside, about 4 minutes longer.
Transfer the chicken to a large bowl and add the hot sauce and jalapeño. Toss until evenly coated. Serve immediately.
