There's something universally delightful about chicken wings. Whether it's the crispy skin, the tender meat underneath, or the array of dips that accompany them, chicken wings have a special place in our hearts (and stomachs). Today, I'm going to take you on a delicious journey with CRISPY FRY® Breading Mix (Original) and some mouth-watering dips that will elevate your chicken wing experience to new heights.
First, let's talk about the protagonist of our culinary story – the chicken wings. Our recipe calls for 16 cups (4000g) of chicken wings, a generous amount fit for a party or a weekend family gathering. The secret to their irresistible crispiness lies in the CRISPY FRY® Breading Mix (Original), which coats each wing to perfection.
The beauty of this recipe is in its simplicity. Start by cutting the chicken wings on a countertop to separate the wing tip and the breast extension. This not only makes them easier to manage but also ensures that they cook evenly.
Next, comes the fun part – coating the wings with CRISPY FRY® Breading Mix (Original). This mix is a game-changer, turning ordinary chicken wings into crispy, golden delights. Make sure each wing is thoroughly coated for that perfect crunch.
Now, it's time to fry. Heat 8 cups (2000ml) of cooking oil in a frying pan. Ensure the oil is at medium heat before adding the wings. Fry the wings until they turn an appetizing golden brown. Once done, use a colander or strainer to drain the excess oil. This step is crucial as it helps maintain that coveted crispiness by allowing air to circulate around the wings.
While the wings are delicious on their own, the right dips and coatings can take them to another level. Let's start with a Garlic Parmesan coating. Simply mix 1 cup (250g) of grated Parmesan cheese with 1/4 cup (60g) of toasted garlic. This combination adds a savory, aromatic touch to the wings.
For those who prefer a tangy and smoky flavor, barbecue sauce is the way to go. Transfer 1 1/2 cups (300ml) of store-bought barbecue sauce into a serving bowl. The sweet and tangy notes of the sauce perfectly complement the crispy wings, creating a flavor explosion in every bite.
After all the frying and coating, you want to ensure your wings stay crispy. One of my favorite cooking tips is to place the fried chicken wings on a colander or strainer. This simple step allows air to circulate around the wings, keeping them crispy for longer.
If you're feeling adventurous, you can also experiment with different variants of CRISPY FRY® Breading Mix. The Spicy and Garlic variants add an extra kick, making your wings even more irresistible. Trust me; your taste buds will thank you!
Now that your wings are perfectly fried and your dips are ready, it's time to assemble your masterpiece. Arrange the chicken wings on a serving plate, making sure they look as good as they taste. Serve them alongside the garlic Parmesan coating and barbecue sauce.
As you bite into the crispy wings, the crunch followed by the tender, juicy meat will make your efforts well worth it. The garlic Parmesan coating adds a rich, savory layer, while the barbecue sauce provides a tangy contrast. Each bite is a symphony of flavors and textures, making it impossible to stop at just one wing.
Chicken wings have a way of bringing people together, whether it's for a game night, a casual get-together, or even a solo indulgence. With CRISPY FRY® Breading Mix (Original) and the right dips, you can elevate this humble dish into a gastronomic delight.
So, next time you're in the mood for some finger-licking goodness, remember this recipe. It's simple, it's delicious, and it's guaranteed to make you the star of any gathering. Happy cooking and even happier eating!
