All the best low carb chicken wing recipes gathered together in one place. Perfect for your healthy Super Bowl party.
One thing you may not know about me is that I am obsessed with chicken wings. Not mildly obsessed, but rather quite obsessed. Those little bitty chicken parts are on my mind very frequently. I love good, crispy wings and I love all the wonderful flavours you can add to them. I love the dipping sauces too; all that chunky bleu cheese or tangy ranch that cools down the heat of good hot wings. Mmmmm, mmmmm, my tummy rumbles just thinking about it. It’s astonishing that I only have two low carb wing recipes on this blog, given the frequency with which I eat wings. I’ve tried many methods, including oven-baking, smoking and deep-frying. I have even gone to the trouble of doing the double-fry to get really, really crispy wings. It’s a lot of work and your house will smell like fried wings for day, but it’s worth it on occasion.
With the Super Bowl just two days away, you know I have chicken wings on the brain. They will be on the menu, of course, although I don’t know what kind yet. But I as I searched out ideas, I decided I had to share my love of chicken wings with you. There are just so many great low carb recipes and I want to make you as obsessed as I am!

January 30, 2015 at 11:02 amThese look great and just in time! If you love wings you should really check out Fire On the Mountain. They have a couple locations on the Eastside in Portland and are a local fave. Also, Pok Pok in SE Portland has a great fish sauce wing if you like Thai food (its not too fishy tasting I swear!).

January 30, 2015 at 12:58 pmWe’ve been to FOTM! And I’ve already told my husband that’s where I want to go for my birthday. We have a Pok Pok near us too, in NE. I LOVE fish sauce, so I will definitely try those wings.

July 4, 2016 at 9:32 amI love Pok Pok’s wings, but they are not, sadly, low carb. Here’s the recipe http://www.pdxmonthly.com/articles/2013/10/1/make-pok-poks-famous-wings-at-home-october-2013.

February 10, 2015 at 1:31 pmCarolyn, would you use these same recipes for chicken breasts? Really wanting to make the breast taste like restaurant chicken on top of various green salads. Do you have a different recipe for chicken breast, maybe marinades? Thanks. Sure enjoy this site and your low carbing among friends cookbooks. You’ve saved us all lots of money and frustration.
Carolyn says
February 10, 2015 at 4:51 pmI always suggest brining chicken breast first. I haven’t done any of these as plain chicken breast. But if you brine them for an hour and then grill, you can season whatever way you want and they usually turn out really well.

September 16, 2015 at 10:36 amHi, I’m looking for a more traditional recipe . I love Franks but the salt is over bearing.. Plus I’m on low carb.. My husband usually just buys the wings down the road but unfortunately it’s breaded? I miss eating wings. Even more than chocolate chip cookies.. My favorite desert!
Diana says
December 30, 2015 at 10:50 amIf you’re in a hurry and want traditional wings, Outback will do their wings not breaded. They’re good about doing stuff low carb.

January 14, 2016 at 5:43 pmNot all of these are low carb. This is a very misleading list. The butter and garlic wings use flour in them. I know you can eliminate it, but I’d rather see a list of recipes I KNOW will work out of the gate.
Carolyn says
January 14, 2016 at 9:42 pmActually a single tbsp of flour amounts to about 6 g of carbs. Spread between albs of wings, that probably adds up to maybe 1 g of carbs per serving. So I would still consider these extremely low carb, although not gluten free. So yes, I stand by my list.

September 29, 2016 at 11:08 amI’m still on the learning curve of chicken wings so this list is very encouraging!
