Tips for Perfectly Crispy Wings

Achieving the perfect crispy texture is key to making outstanding chicken wings. One important tip is to ensure your wings are thoroughly dried before dredging them in flour. This will help the coating adhere better and create that desired crunch when fried.

Additionally, frying the wings in batches prevents overcrowding in the pot, which can lower the oil temperature and lead to soggy wings. Maintaining the right oil temperature is crucial for achieving that golden-brown exterior. A thermometer can be a handy tool for ensuring your oil stays at the perfect frying temperature.

Instructions

Follow these steps to create the perfect wings.

Prepare the Chicken Wings

Rinse the chicken wings and pat them dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, combine flour, salt, and pepper. Dredge the wings in the flour mixture until well coated.

Fry the Wings

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the wings in batches for about 10-12 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Make the Soy Garlic Sauce

In a saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until the sauce thickens.

Coat the Wings

Toss the fried wings in the soy garlic sauce until fully coated. Serve immediately with extra sauce on the side.

Storage and Reheating

If you have any leftover Bonchon Soy Garlic Chicken Wings, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can last up to three days, making them a great option for meal prep or leftovers after a gathering. However, for the best taste and texture, it's recommended to enjoy them fresh.

When it comes to reheating, the oven is your best friend. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and place the wings on a baking sheet. Heat for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are warmed through and crispy again. This method helps retain the wings' texture, giving you that freshly fried experience.

Serving Suggestions

These wings pair wonderfully with a variety of dipping sauces. Consider serving them with ranch or blue cheese dressing for a classic touch. For those who enjoy a bit of spice, a side of sriracha or chili sauce can elevate the flavors even more.

You can also complement your wings with sides like carrot and celery sticks for a fresh crunch, or a simple salad to balance out the richness. A cold beer or a refreshing soda makes for the perfect drink pairing to enhance your wing-eating experience.
