Wings and Accompaniments

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Brine the Wings

    In a large bowl, combine water, salt, and sugar. Stir until dissolved. Add chicken wings to the brine, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results.

  2. 2

    Prepare for Frying

    Remove the wings from the brine, pat dry with paper towels, and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before frying.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Wings

    Carefully add the wings to the hot oil in batches, frying for about 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them and let them drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Coat the Wings

    Toss the fried wings in your choice of buffalo sauce, green chile dry rub, lemon-pepper seasoning, or a mixture of sriracha and lime juice.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Arrange the wings on a platter and serve with celery and carrot sticks, along with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing.
