Better for You Wings

If you were to order chicken wings from a restaurant, it may seem like a reasonable option. I mean, they’re full of protein right?

While even restaurant wings have the protein thing going for them, they may have some detriments. Typically they’ll be fried as part of the cooking process. To make matters worse, they’re often fried in vegetable or canola oils.

There are better options for cooking oils. For this recipe, I chose sesame oil.

Sesame Oil

For starters, the nutty taste of sesame oil makes it a good fit for this recipe.

Cold pressed sesame oil has a big advantage over vegetable oil. The oil is extracted at a low temperature, avoiding the use of chemical solvents or high heat.

You will want to take special care of your sesame oil at home. Recipes (including this one) often call for small amounts of sesame oil, so you’ll likely be storing it for a while.

It can become rancid when exposed to light, heat, or air. Protect your ingredient investment by keeping it in a tightly sealed dark container in a cool place – probably your refrigerator.

If you’d prefer to serve up Buffalo wings to your game buddies (while you keep it keto), then take a peek at this recipe.
