Method
- Heat the oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 375°F.
- In a large bowl, combine all-purpose flour, salt, ground black pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.
- In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.
- Dip chicken strips into the egg mixture and then into the flour mixture to coat them twice.
- Chill the coated chicken in the refrigerator for 20 minutes.
- Fry the chicken in batches for 5-6 minutes, or until golden and internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Toss the fried chicken in your favorite wing sauce and serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage: Store any leftover cooked wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
- Freezing: You can freeze uncooked coated chicken strips. Just fry them straight from the freezer, adding a couple of extra minutes to the frying time.
- Pairing: Serve with celery and carrot sticks along with ranch or blue cheese dressing for a classic touch.
- Spice Level: Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper based on your heat preference. You can also experiment with other spices!
- Alternative Sauces: Try different sauces like teriyaki, honey garlic, or sriracha for a unique twist.
