Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Chicken wings
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Milk
- 2 tablespoons Hot sauce
- 4 cups Vegetable oil
Instructions
Clean and pat dry the chicken wings with paper towels. If not already separated, cut the wings into drumettes and wingettes.
In a large bowl, mix the flour, breadcrumbs, cornstarch, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and hot sauce until fully combined.
Preheat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Make sure the oil is deep enough to fully submerge the chicken wings.
Dredge each chicken wing in the flour mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Dip the floured chicken wing into the egg mixture, coating completely.
Return the wing to the flour mixture, pressing it firmly to create a thicker breading layer.
Carefully lower the breaded wings into the hot oil, a few at a time, to avoid overcrowding the pot.
Fry the wings for 10-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Transfer the cooked wings to a wire rack or a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Serve hot with your favorite dipping sauces and enjoy!
