1
Prepare the Chicken Wings
Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. This helps to ensure they get crispy.
2
Season the Wings
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Toss until the wings are evenly coated.
3
Heat the Oil
In a deep fryer or large pot, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small piece of bread in; it should sizzle and turn golden brown.
4
Fry the Chicken Wings
Carefully add the seasoned chicken wings to the hot oil in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pot. Fry for about 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.
5
Drain and Toss in Sauce
Remove the wings from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. In a clean bowl, toss the hot wings with your choice of sauce until well coated.
6
Serve
Serve the chicken wings hot with additional sauce on the side if desired.
