Fried Chicken Wings with Blackstrap BBQ Sauce. Super crispy wings with a robust, sweet & tangy homemade BBQ dipping sauce. Perfect for parties & game day!
Ingredients
3 to 4 pounds chicken wings (washed, trimmed and cut in pieces.)
canola oil (for frying)
2 eggs
1/3 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons freshly grated nutmeg
1 tbsp ground ginger
½ tsp cayenne pepper (optional, or more or less to your heat preference)
2 tsp fine salt
1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp dry oregano
1 tbsp dry basil
Method
1
Add canola oil or peanut oil to your deep fryer and preheat to 350 degrees F.
2
Dredge the chicken wings into the flour and spice mixture.
3
Dip each wing quickly in the egg wash and then back into the flour and spice mixture.
4
Repeat for all the wings. Lay them on a cutting board while the oil heats.
5
This double dipped method helps keep the crust on the wings and makes them super crispy too.
6
Fry for about 10-12 minutes minutes depending upon the size of the wings until a medium golden brown. Use a meat thermometer to determine of the inside temperature has reached 170 degrees F to ensure they are fully cooked. Small wings can cook in 8-10 minutes.
7
Drain on a wire rack placed on a cookie sheet.

Hold in a 175 degree oven if making more than one batch. Serve with Blackstrap Barbecue Dipping Sauce.
