KFC Chicken Wings
Ingredients
For the Chicken Wings
- 1 kg 2.2 lbs chicken wings, separated into wing tips and flats
- 2 tablespoons buttermilk
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
For the Coating
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional, for extra spice
- Vegetable oil for deep frying
Instructions
- Prepare the Chicken Wings: In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, hot sauce, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat evenly. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
- Prepare the Coating: In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper (if using).
- Set Up the Frying Station: Heat the oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 175°C (350°F). Line a baking sheet with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Coat the Chicken Wings: Remove the chicken wings from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Dredge each wing thoroughly in the flour mixture, ensuring even coating.
- Fry the Chicken Wings: Working in batches, carefully lower the coated chicken wings into the hot oil. Fry for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the fried chicken wings from the oil and transfer them to the prepared baking sheet to drain excess oil. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup, hot sauce, or ranch dressing.
