- Serves:

6-8
ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings (or more, as many as you want!)
- vegetable oil or peanut oil
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- mccormick's cinnamon sugar
directions
- Soak wings in brine to remove impurities for about 30-60 minutes. Then rinse with cold water.
- Cut wings at joints with kitchen shears (save the tips and freeze them for stock).
- Combine flour, salt and pepper in large bowl or plate for dredging.
- Sprinkle lightly with McCormick's Cinnamon Sugar (resist the temptation to be liberal; that can make the skin gooey).
- Pat wings dry.
- Heat oil in electric skillet to 375 degrees.
- Dredge sugared wings into flour mixture. Remember to shake off excess flour.
- Put no more than 8-10 pieces into skillet at a time. Cook until golden brown and crispy.
- Drain cooked wings on newspaper or grocery bags. Don't use paper towels - this makes them soggy. I know it sounds like it takes forever, but this is just an estimated time.
- If you want to make more, just replenish your flour mixture, and you shouldn't need anymore oil. I know it's a lot of oil, but these wings MUST be deep-fried to enjoy the taste. Eat them with fries or salad. They go great with a nice pinot grigio too.

I live in Philadelphia, PA. I am single and prefer it that way. I'm currently unemployed, but looking actively for work as a marketing administrator. I do enjoy cooking for friends, but my family finds my tastes too exotic for them. I am a Navy veteran and have traveled extensively throughout Asia and lived in California for seven years. I'm constantly changing my profile because I am never satisfied with it.
