Introduction
Recreate the iconic, ultra-crispy, and spicy KFC-style chicken wings right at home. This recipe uses a double-breading technique with a water-dip method to achieve that signature flaky crust and deep-infused spicy flavor.
Step 1
Prepare the chicken wings by cutting them at the joints. Separate each wing into a drumette and a flat, and discard the wingtips.
Step 2
Place the prepared wing pieces into a deep container suitable for marinating.
Step 3
Prepare the marinade in a separate bowl by combining water, olive oil, ground ginger, red pepper, black pepper, salt, and ground chili pepper. Mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Step 4
Pour the prepared marinade over the wings, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover the container tightly with cling film and place in a cool place (refrigerator) for 24 hours.
Step 5
Prepare the breading mixture by combining wheat flour, paprika, salt, and ground hot chili pepper in a large, wide bowl, mixing it well.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Marinating the chicken for a full 24 hours is highly recommended to let the spices deeply penetrate the meat and make it tender.
The water dipping technique is key to getting the flaky, layered crunch signature to KFC fried chicken.
Ensure the oil is hot enough before frying so the batter crisps up immediately instead of soaking up excess oil.
