Chili-Lime Wing Sauce

Chili-Lime Wing Sauce
A tangy twist on the classic Buffalo wing.  To.  Die.  For.

½ c butter
½ c Frank’s Red Hot (This is crucial, in my opinion)
1/3 c fresh squeezed lime juice (no, you cannot use the bottled junk)
½ t black pepper

First do this:
In a medium sauce pan over medium heat, combine all of the ingredients.  Cook about 5-6 minutes, until the sauce is slightly thickened, stirring intermittently.  Keep warm until ready to use.

Then do this:
Toss over a batch of Crunchy Baked Chicken Wings, serve immediately.

Eat it like this:
With bleu cheese dressing and celery, of course!  Ranch dressing is a good stand in, too.

If you’re goin’ rogue:
If you think about it, this is already a rogue recipe.  But if you want, toss in a clove of finely minced garlic to the sauce while it simmers.  Just make sure you are eating these with someone who will love you despite your garlic breath.

Keep this in mind:
The sauce will separate while it is reducing.  That’s okay.
