Perfect Crispy Fried Chicken Wings


  • Total Time: PT45M
  • Yield: 4 1x

Description

A foolproof recipe for crispy, juicy chicken wings with a flavorful seasoned coating and double-dip technique for maximum crunch, perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Marinate the chicken wings in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Step 2: In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and cornstarch to make the seasoned coating.
  3. Step 3: Remove wings from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off, then dredge in the seasoned flour mixture, ensuring an even coat.
  4. Step 4: Double-dip the wings by dipping them back into buttermilk and then coating again with the flour mixture for extra crunch.
  5. Step 5: Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Step 6: Fry the wings in batches for about 8-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally.
  7. Step 7: Remove wings from oil and place on a wire rack to drain excess oil.
  8. Step 8: Serve hot with your favorite sauces.

Notes

Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent for even cooking. Resting the wings on a wire rack prevents sogginess and maintains crispiness.
