Classic Salt and Chilli Crispy Wings

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

2. 2

   In a large bowl, mix together the baking powder, salt, ground black pepper, chilli flakes, garlic powder, and onion powder.

3. 3

   Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mix.

4. 4

   Let the wings sit for at least 15 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours for the flavors to meld.

5. 5

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan or deep fryer to 375°F (190°C). Make sure there is enough oil to cover the wings.

6. 6

   Once the oil is hot, add the chicken wings in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.

7. 7

   Fry the wings for about 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Adjust the heat as necessary to maintain the oil temperature.

8. 8

   Remove the wings from the oil and drain on a wire rack set over a baking sheet to keep them crispy.

9. 9

   Serve the crispy wings hot, optionally with your favorite dipping sauce or additional chilli flakes sprinkled on top.
