Seasoned Fried Chicken Wings

Instructions

1. Begin by preparing the chicken wings. Wash them thoroughly under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Set aside.

2. In a shallow dish, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to ensure all the seasonings are evenly distributed.

3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined. This will be used as the egg wash for the chicken wings.

4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (180°C).

5. Working in batches, dredge the chicken wings in the seasoned flour mixture, then dip them into the beaten eggs, allowing any excess to drip off.

6. Carefully place the coated chicken wings into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the skillet. Fry for about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wings are golden brown and cooked through.

7. Once done, remove the fried chicken wings from the oil and place them on a wire rack or paper towels to drain any excess oil.

8. Repeat the process with the remaining chicken wings, ensuring the oil temperature remains consistent throughout the frying process.

9. Serve the Seasoned Fried Chicken Wings hot, garnished with lemon wedges and fresh parsley if desired. These wings pair perfectly with your favorite dipping sauces or side dishes.
