chicken wing

Buffalo bar staple

A chicken wing is a section of a chicken's forelimb, typically divided into the drumette, flat, and tip.

Wings are commonly deep-fried or baked and served with sauce—Buffalo wings being the iconic preparation.

In sports, chicken wing describes an arm held awkwardly outward from the body: His elbow was chicken-winging on every swing.
