- In a mixing bowl add all the powdered seasoning and mix well, let marinated for at least 2 hours.
- In a separate bowl or bag mix together flour, cornstarch and powdered seasoning. add wings in two batches to ensure a smoother coating. let breaded wings sit for 15 mins so that the breading can adhere to the wings.
- In a deep pot heat oil to a temp of about 300 degree Fahrenheit. Fry wings for about 12 mins or until golden brown, longer if you like your wings extra dry. remove wings from oil and drain on paper towel.
