Super tender Chinese style deep fried chicken wings. There are two types of Chinese deep fried chicken wings, one of them is coated with a batter made with flour and starch. Another type is fried only with seasonings not flour coating. The most popular restaurant style is chicken wings with a thick shell made with flour.. The seasoning version is much more aromatic but less crispy. I will introduce flour coated version in this recipe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cook’s note<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Why I choose one time frying other than twice frying?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are lots of recipes ask for twice frying in order to make the surface more crisper. However since we coat starch directly without any liquid content other than batter, one time frying is much easier and it can achieve the texture too. It is harder to control for beginners to use twice frying with dry coating. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips about Marinating <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

1.If you want the chicken wings to be savory, marinating time must be guaranteed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2.Re-mixing the chicken wings before dipping to coating is the key for juicy <\/strong>and tender inside. The chicken wings will loose the juice out after marinating, re-mixing until them absorb once again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tips about coating<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The key tip is to attach the flour closely to the chicken wings<\/strong> so it doesn\u2019t fall in the deep frying process. Compared with braised chicken wings and roasted chicken wings, deep fried chicken wings have the most tender texture so widely loved by children. The method is to coat the chicken wings firstly with flour and then dip in clean water, count for 5 seconds, take out and re-coat with flour once again. If you want an even thicker shell, repeat this process once again. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
