These super crispy wings are super delicious! You can deep fry them or even cook ’em in the skillet–they just take 10 minutes!
Ready in: 40 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 4

• 2 eggs
• 2 cups buttermilk
• 4 pounds chicken wings, rinsed and jointed
• peanut oil for frying
• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup crushed saltine crackers
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Preparation method

Prep: 30 mins | Cook: 10 mins

1. Mix eggs in a bowl, and whisk in the buttermilk until smooth. Mix in the chicken wings, cover, and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
2. Heat the peanut oil in a deep skillet or deep fryer to 350 degrees F. Combine the remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl until evenly blended.
3. Remove each chicken wing, letting the buttermilk mixture drip off. Pack in the breading, then gently shake off any excess breading. Repeat to coat all of the chicken wings.
4. Fry in batches in the hot oil until the meat is no longer pink at the bone and the breading is crispy, about 10 minutes. Turn the wings frequently to ensure even cooking. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle with additional salt to taste, and serve.Alternate method

For buffalo wings, same procedure as above only immediately after removing from oil, place in large sealable container with wing sauce and shake to coat wings.
