Begin by rinsing and patting dry the chicken wings with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until fully coated in the cornstarch mixture. Ensure each wing is evenly covered.
In a large deep skillet or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches approximately 350°F (175°C).
Carefully add the coated chicken wings to the hot oil in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry each batch for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wings are golden brown and cooked through.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the wings from the oil and let them drain on a wire rack or paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Once all wings are fried and drained, transfer them to a serving platter.
Sprinkle the wings with sliced green onions and red chili flakes for an added kick of flavor and color.
Serve the wings hot as an appetizer or with your favorite dairy-free dipping sauce.
