For the Wings
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and line a large roasting pan with foil.
- Step 2
To make the dressing, combine all ingredients except cheese in blender and blend well. Add ¾ of the cheese and blend until just mixed. Stir in remaining cheese and refrigerate for an hour.
- Step 3
To make wings, coat with 2 tablespoons hot sauce and oil. Sprinkle remaining ingredients over wings and toss. (Wings can marinate in the refrigerator for up to a day.) Spread wings in a pan, and in a single layer, roast them about 50 minutes, turning halfway through. Cover and set aside.
- Step 4
Preheat broiler. Line a baking sheet with foil. Using tongs, remove wings from pan, place on baking sheet and pour on remaining hot sauce. Place them onto the baking sheet and, watching closely, broil till they are crisp but don't burn, about 1 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately with ice-cold dressing and celery.

1 tablespoon fine sea salt

Use less salt in Cajun seasoning
I've made this recipe from the original NY Times Sunday Magazine for over 15 years. The dressing and the wings are always a hit. Buying drumettes instead of wings saves time.
