How to make homemade fried chicken wings
Ingredients: 10 chicken wings, McCormick spicy fried chicken powder, starch, 1 egg.
Methods and steps:
1. Marinate the chicken wings with salt for half an hour to 1 hour (add more salt, the marinating time will be shorter; add less salt, The marinating time will be longer) then wash, drain and set aside.
2. Pour half a bag of fried chicken powder into the container and add 1/3-1/2 of the amount of starch of the fried chicken powder (the amount of starch to be added depends on your personal preference for spiciness). Beat in another egg.
3. Use chopsticks to stir until the egg whites and egg yolks are mixed into the powder. Add a little water (about 5CC) to make the powder thick.
4. Turn on the oil and heat it until fine bubbles appear in the pot. Put the chicken wings wrapped in seasoning into the pan and fry. At the same time, use low heat to fry until the seasoning on the surface solidifies. Turn the chicken wings over. Fry the other side. Repeat this repeatedly until both sides are golden brown.
Points to note:
1. Chicken wings can be large or small, and if you are not experienced in making them for the first time, you may have problems with too much or too little seasoning. If you make too little, you can cook it temporarily; if you make too much, you can pick out the chicken wings that were not wrapped in much seasoning, wrap them in a layer of seasoning, and fry them again.
2. The chicken wings are cooked in hot oil, so the fire should not be too high to avoid the skin being burnt and the heart not being cooked.
3. The final result of fried chicken wings is: the skin is crispy on the outside and the chicken wing meat on the inside is very tender.

1) Marinating process:
1) Thaw the raw materials completely and drain them completely for later use.
2) Some fried ingredients need to be modified and the skin lightly scored a few times. (For example: chicken thighs, wings, etc.)

2) Breading process: (flour: cornstarch: spicy fried chicken powder = 2:1:1)
1) Make sure the surface of the raw materials is fully moist before coating. , but it must be drained, otherwise it will not be easy to coat the flour evenly.
2) When coating with flour, bury the raw materials into the prepared flour, pinch both ends of the raw materials with your fingers and roll them in the same direction for more than 5 times (more flour is needed).
3) Soak it in clean water for about 2 seconds to moisten the powder on the middle of the wings, that is, the dry powder wrapping the raw materials becomes paste (do not turn it during soaking to prevent the water from washing away the batter. If it is washed away, it can be coated in flour again)
4) Pick up and drain the water, then put it into dry powder and repeat the above-mentioned powder-coating and kneading method for more than 5-10 times, until the skin is completely evenly coated. Once the scales are on, you can stop pressing and rubbing.
