• Heat a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Stir in the chicken wings, sauce, and water.

FRIED CHICKEN WINGS, CHINESE TAKEOUT-STYLE

Steps:

• Combine chicken wings, black pepper, white pepper, garlic powder, salt, sugar, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, sesame oil and egg in a large mixing bowl. Mix everything until the wings are well-coated. Next, add the cornstarch and all purpose flour and mix again until the wings are coated.
• Let the wings marinate for 2 hours at room temperature or in the refrigerator overnight for best results. (If you refrigerate the wings, be sure to let them come to room temperature again before cooking).
• After marinating, if it looks like there is liquid in the bowl, be sure to mix them thoroughly again. The wings should be well coated with a thin batter-like coating. If it still looks too watery, add a bit more cornstarch and flour.
• Fill a medium pot about 2/3 of the way up with oil, and heat it to 325 degrees F.
• Fry the wings in small batches for 5 minutes and remove to a sheet pan lined with paper towels. After all of the wings are fried, return them in batches to the oil and fry again for 3 minutes.
• Drain on paper towels or a cooling rack, and serve with hot sauce!

SPICY FRIED CHICKEN WINGS: CHINESE TAKEOUT STYLE

Steps:

• Put your chicken wings in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, 1 1/2 tablespoons of dried red chili flakes, white pepper, ground Sichuan peppercorns, cumin, salt, and sugar and mix thoroughly.
• To the chicken wings, add half of the spice mixture and the Shaoxing wine, and mix thoroughly with your hands until the chicken wings are evenly coated. Cover, and let the wings marinate in the refrigerator overnight (a full 24 hours is even better).
• After the wings have finished marinating, take them out of the refrigerator, and let them come up to room temperature. There may be some liquid at the bottom of the bowl, which is fine. Add the beaten egg white, cornstarch, and flour to the wings, and mix well with a spatula. The wings should be very lightly coated with a thin batter.
• In a deep pot, heat your frying oil to 325F. There should be enough oil so that the wings can be submerged. Fry the wings in small batches for 5 minutes each, and transfer to a sheet pan lined with paper towels.
• After all of the wings are fried, return them to the oil in batches fry a second time for 2 minutes each batch--until they turn golden brown and crispy. Transfer the wings to a stainless steel bowl and sprinkle in the remaining spice mixture. Toss the wings until they are well coated!
• If you like, per standard practice with fried food, feel free to add more salt to taste before serving!

THE NEELYS' SPICY FRIED WINGS

Steps:

• Make the seasoning: Whisk the seasoning salt, red pepper flakes, cayenne, poultry seasoning, lemon pepper and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a small bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons seasoning in a separate bowl.
• Rinse the wings under cold water and place in a shallow baking dish. Sprinkle with the seasoning, then refrigerate, covered, 1 hour.
• Make the batter: Whisk the eggs, hot sauce, red pepper flakes, cayenne and 1 teaspoon black pepper in a medium bowl. Put the flour in a shallow dish or pie plate.
• In a large deep fryer or Dutch oven, heat 2 inches of vegetable oil until a deep-fry thermometer registers 350 degrees F. Dip the wings in the eggs, then in the flour. Place the wings, three at a time, in the hot oil and fry until golden, 8 to 10 minutes, turning occasionally. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Make sure the oil returns to 350 degrees F before adding the next batch. Sprinkle the wings with the reserved seasoning to make them extra hot.
• Make the sauce: Mix the sour cream, horseradish, chili sauce, cayenne, and salt and black pepper to taste. Serve with the wings.

CRISPY CHINESE TAKEOUT WINGS

Steps:

• Mix water, shaoxing wine, and cornstarch to achieve a slurry. Should resemble the consistency of a tempura batter. Add chicken into slurry and mix evenly to coat. Try to make sure chicken is completely defrosted to ensure even cooking.
• Make sure all other ingredients are prepped and ready to go since, once the chicken is fried, everything after will happen very fast at high heat.
• Pre-heat frying oil to 365 degrees. Be sure to use a deep fry thermometer to make sure temperature is correct. This part is crucial in ensuring a crispy result.
• Carefully fry the battered chicken in hot oil. Work in batches if frying vessel isn't large enough. Make sure the temperature stays constant.
• Give chicken a periodic stir to keep them from sticking together or to the fryer.
• Once chicken is golden brown, remove from frying oil with a slotted utensil. Drain fried chicken properly and set aside. Repeat frying process with the remaining chicken if doing in batches. If making for a large party, set an oven to 160 degrees and place drained chicken inside to keep them warm and crisp until the frying is complete.
• Preheat 2 tbsp of oil in a wok, black steel, cast iron, or pan of choice on med-high heat. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute stirring and tossing to prevent burning.
• Next, add fresh or dried chilis. Cook for 30 seconds, then add scallions and cook for another 30-40 seconds. Like the garlic, stir quickly to prevent burning.
• Add the properly drained fried chicken into the same pot with the aromatics. Sprinkle MSG over chicken and toss to coat until all ingredients are evenly distributed. According to local Chinese chefs, they add a ton of MSG so don't skimp if you want an authentic result.
• ENJOY!
