Make Gorgonzola Dipping Sauce: Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, water and lemon juice in small bowl; mix well. Stir in cheese and set aside. Makes 1 cup. Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Combine flour, salt and pepper in shallow pie plate. Dip chicken breasts in milk, then in flour mixture. Add chicken to skillet and cook until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Combine melted butter and pepper sauce in medium bowl. Add chicken and toss to coat. Serve immediately with sliced fennel and Gorgonzola Dipping Sauce. Makes 4 servings. We`ve kept all the great flavor of the original zesty chicken wings but eliminated some of the fat by using skinless breasts.
