"From one of our national supermarkets. Times do not include overnight marinating. I made a half recipe and really enjoyed the crunchy moist wings and when making thought 100 grams of flour was excessive but belief me it is not you will need it all. The only change I would make would be to split the wings into two pieces as a personal preference."

Great chicken wings with a kick! These had great flavor and a nice crispy coating. I got confused about the consistency of the flour "batter" - thinking by adding in some of the marinade that it should be a batter consistency and added a lot more marinade. Then I realized that it probably wasn't meant to be a batter, so added more flour mixture back into it....lol. Even though I completely messed up that part, the wings still came out very well! Thank you!

this chicken is really good which all enjoyed. I made less wings than indicated and also used less cayenne. Delicious! Thanks for sharing!

We loved the spiciness of these wings...my batter was on the thick side so I just added a bit of milk to loosen it up some...made for "FYC" tag game...
