Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Add the chicken wings and mix until well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Coating

    In another bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Dredge the Chicken

    Remove the chicken wings from the marinade and let excess liquid drip off. Dredge each wing in the flour and cornstarch mixture, ensuring they are fully coated. Shake off any excess coating.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  5. 5

    Fry the Chicken

    Carefully place the coated chicken wings into the hot oil in batches. Fry for about 10-12 minutes or until they are golden brown and fully cooked, flipping them halfway through.

  6. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried wings and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with your choice of sauce or side.
