Fried Wings

John says: It is best to season wings while they’re hot, right out of the oil. For even simpler preparation of this recipe, substitute the spices in Step 4 with Butterball® Cajun Seasoning. Don’t forget to serve with a bowl of ranch or bleu cheese dressing, along with celery and carrot sticks!

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Fill butterball® or Masterbuilt Fryer with oil to the MAX line. Heat to 375°F; this will take approximately 15 to 20 minutes.
  2. Place wings in a large bowl. Pour soy sauce over wings, cover and chill in refrigerator for 1 hour. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.
  3. Place wings into the fryer basket and carefully lower into the fryer; cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally. Be careful not to overcrowd or stack wings in the basket. Using a metal spatula or slotted spoon, remove wings from fryer and place in a single layer on paper towels.
  4. In a small bowl, combine pepper, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Sprinkle mixture over wings, turning to coat both sides.
