Crispy Honey Garlic Chicken Wings Recipe

Ingredients:

For the Chicken Wings:

• 2 lbs chicken wings
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• Oil for frying

For the Honey Garlic Sauce:

• 1/2 cup honey
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon butter

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Chicken Wings:

• Cut the chicken wings into drumettes and flats. Discard the wing tips or save them for making stock.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
• Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. Dredge each wing in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well coated. Shake off any excess flour.

2. Fry the Chicken Wings:

• Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).
• Fry the chicken wings in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 8-10 minutes or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
• Remove the wings from the oil and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining wings.

3. Prepare the Honey Garlic Sauce:

• In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
• Stir in the honey, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Toss the Wings in Sauce:

• Place the fried chicken wings in a large bowl.
• Pour the honey garlic sauce over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.

5. Serve:

• Serve the honey garlic chicken wings hot, garnished with chopped parsley or green onions if desired.
