  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1.5 cups flour
  • Seasoning such as Vegeta and black pepper

How Cook Chicken Wings:

To start, wash and salt the chicken wings.

Prepare the batter by working on half of the serving of wings at a time. Add half of the flour and seasoning mixture to a zip lock bag and mix together.

Combining flour, pepper and Vegeta seasoning on a plate.

Put half of the chicken wings inside, seal and shake together until wings are fully coated.

Coating the chicken wings with a flour and seasoning mixture.

Heat a deep dish frying pan with oil and place on medium heat. Ensure there is enough oil in the pan to just cover the wings. Do not cook on a high heat setting, otherwise, the chicken wings will not cook through to the center.

To be sure the oil is ready for frying, sprinkle some bread crumbs in the oil. If the oil sizzles, it’s ready for cooking.

Once oil is heated up, carefully add one coated wing at a time, shaking off the excess flour mixture. Place the wings into the hot oil and cook for 5 minutes one side. Then turn over to cook for another 5 minutes.

To check if the chicken is fully cooked, cut one piece open and if the juices are clear, the chicken is cooked through. Alternatively, you can use a thermometer.
