Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
- 1 cup Barbecue sauce
- 0.5 cup Honey
- 1 tablespoon White vinegar
- 0.5 teaspoon Hot sauce
Instructions
Wash and pat dry the chicken wings. Separate drumettes and wingettes if not already done.
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well.
In another bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together to create an egg wash.
Dust the chicken wings in the flour mixture, dip them in the egg wash, and then coat them again in the flour mixture. Set each piece aside on a plate until all wings are coated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry the wings in batches for 8–10 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Drain on paper towels.
In a saucepan over low heat, combine the barbecue sauce, honey, white vinegar, and hot sauce. Stir and heat until fully blended and warmed, about 5 minutes.
Toss the fried wings in the honey barbecue sauce until evenly coated.
Serve immediately while the wings are warm and enjoy!
