how to fry chicken wings?

You'll find a detailed ingredient list and step-by-step instructions in the recipe below, but let's go over the basics:

These are the ingredients you’ll need to make this restaurant-worthy fried chicken wing recipe:

In oil heated to 375 degrees F, the chicken wings should be fully cooked after about 10-12 minutes. You’ll know they’re perfectly fried when the skin is crispy, the juices run clear, and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat, near the bone, reads 165 degrees F.

This recipe works so well because the wings are chilled twice before frying, ensuring extra crispy chicken skin.

Another trick for the crispiest skin: Avoid crowding the pan by frying the wings in batches. This might take a little longer, but the results are well worth the weight.

Serve these fried chicken wings with a side of ranch or blue cheese and cooling veggies (like celery or carrots). If you’re looking for more pairing inspiration, explore these top-rated collections:

Store fried chicken wings in an airtight container in the fridge for up to four days. For the most delicious results, reheat leftover the wings in the oven or air fryer to ensure they stay crispy.

“So crispy,” according to gsternberg. “We don't like breading on our wings, and the dredging in flour only crisps up what's there.”

“I made these exactly like the recipe and they were the best wings I’ve made,” raves one Allrecipes community member. “The crust was so crunchy and perfect! I’ll be making these often. The entire family loved them!”
