Preparation

Preparation & Cooking

1. Prepare the Wings

In a large bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss the chicken wings in the mixture until evenly coated.

2. Fry the Wings

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the wings in batches for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

3. Fry the Thai Basil

In the same oil, quickly fry the Thai basil leaves for about 30 seconds until crispy. Be cautious as they may splatter.

4. Prepare the Jalapeños

Slice the jalapeños into rings. You can remove the seeds for less heat, if desired.

5. Assemble the Dish

Top the crispy wings with the fried Thai basil and jalapeño slices. Serve immediately.
