Ingredients for Alitas Fritas

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    In a large bowl, mix flour, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Dip each chicken wing into the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

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

  3. 3

    Fry the Wings

    Carefully place the coated wings in the hot oil, frying in batches if necessary, for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Buffalo Sauce

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the hot sauce and stir until well combined.

  5. 5

    Toss the Wings

    In a large bowl, toss the fried wings in the prepared buffalo sauce until fully coated.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve hot with celery sticks and blue cheese dressing on the side.
