    Buffalo Chicken Wings

    Taste the Ultimate Buffalo Chicken Wings Recipe!

    Buffalo chicken wings are an absolute game-changer when it comes to enjoying sports on TV! And the best part? This recipe is easy to prepare, bursting with flavors, and perfect for sharing with friends. However, if you’re expecting a crowd, be sure to double the portions so you don’t run out!

    Now, let’s talk about this Buffalo sauce. It’s incredibly simple to make, and you can even substitute the lemon juice with apple cider vinegar if you’d like. Either way, chicken cooked with Buffalo sauce is always a winner!

    But why pair Buffalo wings with blue cheese sauce?

    Well, the dairy products in the blue cheese sauce contain casein, a type of protein. This protein latches onto the capsaicin particles in the Buffalo sauce, reducing the burning sensation in your mouth!

    Indeed, capsaicin is known to irritate the mucous membranes of the human body, as it affects the heat receptors in our nervous system.

    SIMPLY DELICIOUS: Planning a delicious spread of appetizers for your guests? Don’t forget to whip up some classic guacamole, grilled halloumi bites, lamb arayes, maple cocktail sausages, and pesto and avocado arancini!

    Calories are units of energy. They represent a measurable quantity of energy brought by a food. Your energetic needs depend on your age, height, weight, gender and how active you are. The average need ranges around 2000 calories/day. A higher or inferior intake might affect your weight.
  • Lipids
    - g
    -
    Lipids (fats) are essential to your body. They are an important source of energy. However, an excessive consumption is associated with weight gain and higher risks of chronic diseases such as diabetes and cardiovascular problems. Unsaturated fats are preferable to saturated or trans fats.
  • Saturated fats
    - g
    -
    Saturated fats, commonly known as “bad fats”, are mostly found in processed foods and in some products of animal origin. If consumed in excess, they can have adverse effects on cardiovascular health, including increases in LDL-cholesterol levels. Try to eat better lipids such as those found in fish, nuts, oilseeds, and oils!
  • Cholesterol

    -

  • Sodium
