👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1--- MARINATE THE CHICKEN WINGS: ---
2. 2In a large bowl, add your freshly cleaned + rinsed chicken wings along with the On Everything All-Purpose Blend, smoked paprika, and salt, mixing everything together until chicken is fully coated. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes. NOTE: For best results, it's best to marinate chicken overnight in the refrigerator or for up to 2 days.
3. 3--- TO MAKE THE DREDGING BATTER + COATING: ---
4. 4In a bowl, add the flour along with the following: On Everything All-Purpose Blend, smoked paprika, and red pepper flakes, tossing everything together until combined. In a another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, and hot sauce. In another bowl, add the cornstarch.
5. 5--- DREDGE THE WINGS: ---
6. 6Now, dip one chicken wing into the cornstarch followed by the egg mixture (shaking off any excess) and then add it into the seasoned flour coating mixture-----tossing it around until both sides of wing is well coated. You can lay prepped chicken wing onto a baking sheet or plate. Repeat until all are made!
7. 7--- FRY THE WINGS: ---
8. 8In a medium-sized dutch oven pot, heat 3-4 cups of oil over medium-low heat. Add a few coated chicken wings to heated oil (about 3-4 at a time if they fit) and fry on each side until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes each side. Using a skimmer, transfer the fried wings from the oil onto a wire rack to further drain any excess oil while keeping them crisp. Repeat until all chicken wings are fried and transferred to wire rack.
9. 9Serve as-is along with your favorite dipping sauce or condiment or enjoy with your favorite sides like fries, sweet potato fries, mashed potatoes, mac + cheese, biscuits, rice, etc.
