Chicken Wings

French Toast

Maple Syrup & Cream Anglaise

Method

Preparation of Chicken Wings

  1. 1

    Prepare Chicken Wings

    In a large bowl, season the chicken wings with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Station

    Prepare three shallow dishes: one with flour, one with beaten eggs, and one with breadcrumbs. Dredge each wing in flour, dip in egg, then coat with breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Fry Chicken Wings

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the wings in batches for about 8-10 minutes or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.

Preparation of French Toast

  1. 4

    Make the Egg Mixture

    In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon until fully combined.

  2. 5

    Cook French Toast

    Melt 1 tbsp of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Dip each slice of bread into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off. Cook each slice in the skillet for about 2-3 minutes per side or until golden brown. Repeat with remaining bread, adding more butter as needed.

Maple Syrup & Cream Anglaise

  1. 6

    Prepare Cream Anglaise

    In a saucepan, combine heavy cream, milk, and sugar. Heat over medium heat until just below boiling. In a separate bowl, whisk egg yolks and gradually add the hot cream mixture while whisking continuously. Return to the saucepan and cook on low heat until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in vanilla extract and let cool.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve the chicken wings alongside the French toast. Drizzle with maple syrup and cream anglaise.
