• 2 1/2 pounds chicken wings, separated into pieces, wing tips discarded
• 1 cup flour
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 2 teaspoons paprika

1. Combine flour, salt, paprika, and pepper in a large shallow dish or a plastic resealable bag. Dredge wings in mixture.
2. Heat oil to 375 degrees F in a deep fryer. Fry wings in batches for about 8 minutes until meat is no longer pink in the middle, flipping part way through cooking time.
