  • 2 1/2 pounds chicken wings, separated at the joint, tips removed
  • 2 teaspoons from 1 container (6.25 oz) Old El Paso™ Original Taco Seasoning Mix
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • 1 can (10 oz) Old El Paso™ Mild Red Enchilada Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons wing sauce

Instructions

  1. 1

    Make the Dip: Combine the sour cream, cilantro and garlic in a small food processor or blender. Process until smooth. Season to taste with salt. Refrigerate until needed.
