Method

Prepare Chicken Wings

  1. 1

    Season the Wings

    In a large bowl, toss the chicken wings with salt and black pepper until evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Dredge in Flour

    Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the seasoned chicken wings and toss until they are fully coated.

Fry Chicken Wings

  1. 3

    Heat Oil

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

  2. 4

    Fry Wings

    Carefully add the flour-coated chicken wings to the hot oil in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 10-12 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make Salsa Verde

  1. 5

    Blend Ingredients

    In a blender, combine the fresh cilantro, green tomatillos, red jalapeño, lime juice, garlic, and salt. Blend until smooth and set aside.

Prepare Crispy Garlic Oil

  1. 6

    Infuse Oil

    In a small saucepan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the 6 cloves of garlic, and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the garlic and set aside.

Combine and Serve

  1. 7

    Toss Wings

    In a large bowl, combine the fried chicken wings with the salsa verde. Toss until wings are fully coated.

  2. 8

    Serve the wings immediately, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
