Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 2 teaspoons Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 2 tablespoons Vinegar-based hot sauce
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
Begin by separating the chicken wings into drumettes and flats, if necessary. Pat dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
In a large bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and vinegar-based hot sauce. Add the chicken wings to the buttermilk mixture, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight for maximum flavor.
In another large bowl, mix the all-purpose flour, baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir until all ingredients are well blended.
Remove the chicken wings from the buttermilk mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Dredge each wing in the flour mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Shake off any excess flour and place the wings on a baking sheet to rest for about 10 minutes, allowing the coating to set.
In a large, deep skillet or a deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat to about 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to accurately gauge the temperature.
Carefully place the coated chicken wings into the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry the wings for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove the wings from the oil and place them on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to drain excess oil.
Repeat the frying process with the remaining chicken wings. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain the oil temperature.
Once all the wings are fried, let them rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces and sides.
