BBQ Boneless Wings
BBQ Boneless Wings are the perfect easy dinner idea that everyone can agree on. Crispy fried boneless chicken coated in sweet bbq sauce is impossible to resist.
Fried Chicken Strips with Honey Mustard Sauce is my go-to favorite but my kids always order the bbq boneless wings from Sonic and they agree that our copycat boneless wings are even better! Serve them up with Homemade Coleslaw for a quick and easy meal.

My go to recipe whenever I am hosting game night! So easy to make and it’s always a hit.
My husband really loves this!! Quickly became a favorite at my house!
I don’t like wings. We had to eat them when I was a kid and truly, I don’t understand the hoopla now! LOL. The thing is, my grandson loves the wings he gets at Pizza Hut (or is it Mazzios?). I’d like to make them for him but I don’t know if this is the same recipe, or at least close…? Can someone that likes wings tell me??
Thanks for the recipes. I love SO MANY of them!
Sincerely,
Renee

Hi Renee,
So glad you are enjoying the recipes. Tell Miss V that I said hello, she’s the sweetest. My kids like the ones at Pizza Hut too and they loved these, so I bet your grandson will love them too.
