Cajun Chicken Wings

I love chicken wings. Any flavor, any time, but in particular, I love wings with some kick. Not over-the-top, kick-me-in-the-gut hot, but just spicy enough to wake you up. These Cajun chicken wings with dipping sauce bring the heat.

For the wings

3-4 pounds chicken wings separated
¾ cup plain yogurt
⅔ cup Louisiana hot sauce
2 teaspoons garlic powder

½ cup blue cheese salad dressing
¼ cup Louisiana hot sauce
¼ cup blue cheese or Gorgonzola, crumbled

Instructions

For the wings

Place wings in a large resealable container or baggie.
Whisk together the yogurt, hot sauce and garlic powder.
Marinate 2 - 12 hours, flipping occasionally.
Cook wings as desired. Click here for our guide on cooking wings in a grill, smoker, deep fryer, oven, or a Char-Broil Big Easy.

For the dipping sauce

Place the cream cheese, dressing and hot sauce into medium bowl.
Microwave for 1-2 minutes until melted.
Whisk mixture until creamy smooth.
Fold in the blue cheese.

Notes

The dipping sauce is also great using Ranch dressing.
