Ingredients
- 1 to 1 ½ Ib Chicken Wings
- Mango Habanero Sauce Buffalo wild wings sauce
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1 tsp Onion Powder
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
- 1/4 tsp Salt or Poultry/Chicken seasoning
- 1/2 tsp Smoked paprika
- Yellow Mustard Add enough to coat chicken
- Hot Sauce A few squirts
- 1 ½ to 2 Cups Flour
- 1 Tbsp Cornstarch for extra crispy wings
- Oil for frying Peanut, Canola, or Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- Clean/Prep the chicken wings beforehand, cut into Wingettes & Drummettes. Pat dry with a paper towel & add the wings to a large bowl.
- Season the meat with the dry seasonings, yellow mustard, and hot sauce. Mix everything together and make sure the chicken is nicely coated.
- Tip: For extra crispy wings add a little bit of cornstarch to the flour.
- Next, toss the seasoned chicken wings in the flour and let the breaded chicken rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
- In a frying pan or skillet, heat up some oil until it at least reaches 350°F. Once the oil is hot and ready- add the wings in batches to fry.
- The cooking time will vary, but it should take about 10 to 15 minutes total. Make sure you flip the chicken over halfway through cooking time. Use a thermometer to check for doneness. Perfectly cooked chicken will reach 165°F.
- When the chicken is fully cooked, place the chicken on a wire rack or a paper towel to drain excess oil.
- Place all the cooked chicken in a bowl & toss with the sauce.
- Serve with fries & celery/carrots. Enjoy!
