Perfectly Crispy Garlic Hot Wings Recipe

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs chicken wings, tips removed, drumettes and flats separated
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup buttermilk
• 2 cups vegetable oil, for frying
• 1/4 cup butter
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/2 cup hot sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon vinegar

Directions:

1. Prepare the Coating: In a spacious bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, and season generously with salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors.
2. Marinate the Wings: Place the chicken wings in a separate bowl and pour the buttermilk over them, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated. Allow them to marinate for at least 30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.
3. Heat the Oil: In a large frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches the optimal frying temperature.
4. Coat the Wings: Remove the wings from the buttermilk, allowing any excess to drip off, and dredge them in the seasoned flour mixture until they are fully coated, ensuring an even layer of crunchiness.
5. Fry to Perfection: Carefully place the coated wings in the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Fry each batch until the wings achieve a glorious golden brown color and crispy texture, approximately 10 minutes per side.
6. Prepare the Sauce: In a separate saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, approximately 1 minute. Then, incorporate the hot sauce, honey, and vinegar, stirring well to create a harmonious blend of flavors.
7. Toss and Coat: Once the wings are fried to perfection, toss them in the prepared sauce until each wing is generously coated, ensuring every bite is bursting with flavor.
8. Serve and Enjoy: Plate up your Crispy Fried Garlic Hot Wings and serve them hot, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauce or side dishes.
