Ingredients
  

Instructions
 

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine ½ cup of all-purpose flour, ¼ teaspoon paprika, ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  • Add 10 chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the flour mixture.
  • Place the coated chicken wings in a 9x13-inch glass baking dish, arranging them in a single layer.
  • Cover the baking dish and refrigerate the chicken wings for 1 to 1½ hours.
  • Pour vegetable oil into a deep, heavy skillet until it's about 1 inch deep. Heat the oil to 375° F
  • In a small saucepan, combine ¼ cup butter, ¼ cup hot sauce, a pinch of ground black pepper, and a pinch of garlic powder. Heat over low heat, stirring until the butter is melted and the ingredients are well mixed. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Fry the chicken wings in the hot oil for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they start to crisp and turn brown. Keep the oil temperature consistent while frying.
  • Remove the wings from the oil and let them drain on paper towels or a wire rack.
  • Place the fried wings on a serving platter and drizzle with the hot sauce mixture. Alternatively, toss the wings and hot sauce in a bowl until they are well coated.
