Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 kg chicken wings fresh
  • 100 g flour
  • 1 tsp backing soda
  • 1 tbsp sea salt kosher
  • 1 tsp ground pepper freshly ground
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • 500 ml sunflower oil

Sticky Glaze

  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1 tbsp ginger chopped
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • ½ pieces lemon juice
  • 1 tsp chilli flakes
  • 2 tbsp sunflower oil

Instructions

  • In a bowl, combine the flour with baking soda. Season the mixture with sea salt, freshly ground pepper, and garlic granules.
  • After mixing the dry ingredients, coat the chicken wings thoroughly in the flour mixture.
  • Heat sunflower oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Shake off any excess flour from the chicken wings and add them to the pan.
  • Fry the wings over medium heat for about 15 minutes, turning them every 5 minutes until they are a deep golden brown.
  • Then, remove them from the oil and place them in a bowl.
  • In a pan, warm a little olive oil over medium heat. Add a spoonful of chopped garlic (four cloves) and stir thoroughly for about half a minute, then add a spoonful of chopped ginger.
  • Mix for another half a minute. Then, add the soy sauce, the honey and the chopped chili. Squeeze in the juice from half a lemon and add the brown sugar. Stir to combine everything well.
  • After the sauce has thickened slightly, add the chicken wings and toss them until they are fully coated.
  • Fry them for 1-2 minutes, then remove them to a plate
  • Arrange the sticky chicken wings on a large platter with dipping sauces like blue cheese, ranch, or extra sticky sauce.

Notes

The secret ingredient for amazingly crispy chicken wings is baking powder!
Simmering your sauce on low heat helps it reduce and thicken.
Allow the wings to cool completely to room temperature before storing them. This prevents them from steaming and getting soggy in the container.
