Ingredients
- 4 pounds chicken wings (whole)
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- Oil (enough for deep frying)
- FOR SAUCE
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 3 to 4 garlic cloves (minced, more or less depending on the level of garlickiness you prefer, I normally add more because I LOVE GARLIC)
- 3 scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon jalapeno pepper (finely chopped, or 1/4-1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, both are optional)
How to Make
-
Step 1: Cut chicken wings into 3 sections; discard wing tips.
-
Step 2: In a large plastic bag or shallow bowl, combine flour and salt. Add wings in small batches; toss to coat. (Place floured wings in refrigerator; this helps flour to adhere to chicken.)
-
Step 3: In an electric skillet or deep fat fryer, heat oil to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Fry wings, a few at a time, until juices run clear, about 8 - 10 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
-
Step 4: In a bowl, combine sugar, soy sauce, garlic scallions and jalepeno (optional). Dip fried wings in sauce. Serve immediately.
-
Step 5: NOTE: I normally double the sauce because it's great and adds more flavor. For a crispy result and for a great end product, the temperature of the oil and fry time is essential. Therefore, if you find that your wings aren't crispy enough when cooked for the 8 - 10 minutes, fry them up a little longer until they are crispy!
Tips & Variations
- Deep electric fryer or a deep pot which you'll add oil
