The Neelys Spicy Fried Wings Recipes

PAT'S SPICY PEACH HOT WINGS

Steps:

• Preheat deep fryer with peanut oil to 350 degrees F.
• Mix the 2 teaspoons salt, smoked paprika, and garlic powder together in a small bowl.
• Add chicken wings and toss to coat.
• Melt the butter in medium saucepan over medium heat with the garlic.
• Stir in peach preserves, hot sauce, and soy sauce. Cook until syrupy and thick, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the wings to the deep fryer and fry until cooked through and golden and crisp, 12 to 15 minutes. You will need to do this in 2 batches so you don't overcrowd your fryer.
• Remove the wings from the fryer and drain on a paper towel-lined baking tray.
• Add the fried wings to the large bowl of sauce and toss until well combined and wings are well coated. Using a slotted spoon, remove the wings to a platter and serve immediately.

• Preheat a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• Into a large paper bag, measure the flour, cayenne, garlic powder, paprika, and salt and pepper. Shake off excess buttermilk mixture and place the chicken, a few pieces at a time, into the bake and shake to dredge.
• Place the chicken into the hot oil and fry until golden and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes for white meat and 13 to 15 for dark meat. Remove from the fryer onto a paper towel lined sheet tray and season with salt and pepper.
