2 quarts vegetable shortening, for frying
24 whole chicken wings (about 6 pounds)
4 eggs
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornstarch
2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons creamed honey
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 teaspoons turmeric
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Salt
1 cup hot sauce (recommended: Frank's Red Hot)
1 cup (2 sticks) butter
1 lemon, juiced
1 small bunch basil
Salt
1 lemon, zested
1 lime, zested

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat vegetable shortening until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 375 degrees F. Line a sheet tray with a wire rack.
  • Using kitchen shears or a sharp knife, separate the chicken wings into the drummettes and wings, discarding the wing tip joint.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, cream, cayenne, 1 tablespoon salt and black pepper. In a paper bag, shake together flour, cornstarch and 1 tablespoon salt. Place chicken in egg mixture and toss well to coat. Place chicken in batches in the bag of flour mixture. Shake well to coat. Set on wire rack to let coating set, 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile make the Honey BBQ Sauce and the Spicy Butter Sauce. In a small saucepan, bring the ingredients for the Honey BBQ Sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and cook until sauce has reduced by half, about 12 minutes, stirring frequently. In another saucepan, bring the ingredients for the Spicy Butter Sauce to a simmer. Remove from heat and let basil infuse in butter for at least 15 minutes. Remove basil.
  • When oil is at the right temperature, add chicken, working in batches, and fry until cooked through and crispy, about 13 minutes. Season chicken with salt then immediately toss, taking turns with batches, in the Honey BBQ sauce, or the Spicy Butter Sauce or sprinkle with the lemon and lime zest.

Time 8h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

½ cup kosher salt
¼ cup sugar
1 tablespoon gochugaru, (Korean chile flakes)
2 lb chicken wings
1 ginger, peeled and sliced - 3 in (7 cm)
8 cloves garlic, peeled
4 scallions, cut into 2 in (5 cm)
3 cups olive oil, plus more as needed
¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup soy sauce
½ cup honey
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
¼ cup gochujang, (Korean chile paste)
2 cups cornstarch, divided
1 cup all purpose flour
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 ¾ cups water
toasted sesame seed
fresh cilantro leaf
scallion, sliced

Steps:

  • Dry brine the wings: Set a wire rack inside a rimmed baking sheet.
  • In a small bowl, combine the salt, sugar, and gochugaru.
  • Add the wings to a large bowl and sprinkle with the dry brine, tossing to coat evenly. Arrange the wings right side up on the wire rack and refrigerate, uncovered, for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
  • Confit the wings: Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C).
  • Transfer the brined wings to an 8 x 11-inch baking dish. Scatter the ginger, garlic, and scallions around the wings. Pour the olive oil into the baking dish, adding more oil if needed to ensure the wings are fully submerged.
  • Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for 2½-3 hours, until the meat starts to pull away from the bones, but is still intact and tender.
  • Line a baking sheet with foil. Remove the wings from the oven and let cool slightly. Lift out of the oil and drain well, then set on the prepared baking sheet. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour. If desired, reserve the leftover oil to confit more wings. The oil will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 2 month.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a medium pan over medium heat, combine the rice vinegar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and gochujang. Cook, stirring often, until the sauce is bubbling and thickened, 3-4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and set aside.
  • Fry the wings: Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Make the batter: Add 1 cup of cornstarch to a large bowl and set aside. Add the remaining cup of cornstarch to a separate large bowl, along with the flour, salt, and water and whisk until smooth with no lumps.
  • Coat a chicken wing in the cornstarch, shaking off excess, then gently dredge the wing in the batter, letting any excess drip off.
  • Working in 2 batches, add the wings to the hot oil and fry for 4-5 minutes, until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
  • Transfer the wings to a large bowl and pour the sauce over. Toss to coat well.
  • Transfer the wings to a serving platter and pour more sauce over, then garnish with toasted sesame seeds, cilantro, and scallions.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a large pot to cook the wings so that they have plenty of room to move around and cook evenly.
  • Brine the wings in a mixture of water, salt, and sugar for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to keep the wings moist and juicy.
  • Use a high-quality cooking oil, such as olive oil or avocado oil, for frying the wings. This will help to prevent the wings from sticking to the pan and will also give them a nice, crispy coating.
  • Cook the wings over medium heat so that they have time to cook through without burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the wings. The wings are done cooking when they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • While the wings are cooking, make the sticky onion crunch topping. Combine crispy onions, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and cayenne pepper in a bowl. Toss the cooked wings in the sticky onion crunch topping until they are evenly coated.
  • Serve the wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

These Sticky Onion Crunch Wings are the perfect party food! They are crispy, flavorful, and sure to be a hit with everyone.
