I whipped these little guys up since we were craving chicken wings from our favorite local restaurant. We didn't want to drive the 10 miles there - so I came up with this recipe with ingredients we had on hand. My fiance swears they are better than any we've had; and I have to agree!!!
½tablespoon
fresh ginger
, pressed and minced
(optional)
vegetable oil (for frying) or
canola oil
(for frying)
Directions:
1
Heat butter, soy sauce, corn syrup, brown sugar, water, dry mustard, cayenne, garlic and ginger until butter and brown sugar melt. Cool and set aside in large bowl.
2
Heat oil on high heat until it hisses when splashed with a drop of water.
3
Coat chicken pieces with salt.
4
Carefully lower chicken wings into hot oil. Fry until chicken is caramel in color and crispy; about 10 minutes.
5
Remove chicken from oil and drain on paper towels.
6
Toss chicken in butter mixture until well coated. Remove and serve with blue cheese or ranch.
