Allergens

Soy, Milk (Dairy)

Ingredients

• 12 large chicken wings
• 3/4 cup all
• purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• For the Firecracker Sauce:
• 1/4 cup hot sauce (e.g., Frank's RedHot)
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional)
• 1/4 teaspoon white vinegar

Instructions

1. Prepare the Firecracker Sauce by whisking together all sauce ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss chicken wings in the mixture to coat evenly.
3. In a deep fryer or heavy pot, heat oil to 350°F (175°C). Fry chicken wings in batches for about 12 minutes total, turning occasionally until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels.
4. Toss fried wings generously in the Firecracker Sauce to coat completely. Return to the fryer for an additional 30 seconds to reheat and caramelize the sauce. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce or garnish, if desired.

Chef’s Insight

The secret to perfect chicken wings is to ensure they're fully coated in seasoning and fried until golden brown and crispy before tossing in the spicy sauce.
