Perfect hot wings are all about the technique. There's no need to flour or bread these. Frying the wings before stirring them with melted butter and Cajun spices makes them flavorful and crisp.

This is the best Cajun wing recipe ever! Every time I make it people freak out. The butter is key along with the resting time. I'll even make them ahead of time and then cover them and keep them warm in the oven until ready to eat and they just don't dry out! It's the butter! I'll even put the Cajun recipe on other types of chicken now.
