Ingredients:

• 600 – 800g (22oz) chicken wings

For the marinade:

• 200 ml of water
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp dried ground ginger
• 2 tbsp red pepper
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 – 2 tsp dried and ground chili pepper

For the breading:

• 3 cups (500g) wheat flour
• 2 tbsp dried and ground paprika
• 1 tbsp salt
• dried and ground hot chili pepper (to taste)

Directions:

Step 1

Cut the chicken wings into three, then place them in a bowl for marinating. In a small bowl, combine 200ml water, 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp dried and ground ginger, 2 tbsp red pepper, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp salt,  and 1 – 2 tsp ground chili powder. Mix well. Pour this marinade over the chicken wings. Cover with cling film and put away in a cool place for 24 hours. In another bowl, combine 3 cups of wheat flour, 2 tbsp paprika, 1 tbsp salt, and ground hot chili pepper to taste (to make the wings hot like in KFC, add 2 – 3 tsp.) Mix well. Roll all the marinated chicken wings into the flour mixture thoroughly, making sure they are all well-coated.

Step 2

After coating the chicken wings with the flour mixture, transfer them to a colander and shake well to remove excess breading. After this, dip the wings (while still in the colander) in the water and wait for the bubbles to come out. Shake it after and roll it again in the flour mixture. Next, heat 34 – 50 oz vegetable oil in a pot over high heat, then add wings one by one. Cook the wings over medium heat for 8 – 10 minutes. After this, transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate. Serve.
