Southern Fried Chicken Wings _ How To Make Crispy Fried Chicken _ So Easy!

Hey guys .

So welcome back to my channel .

If you are new here , I'm Delilah from the simple way .

I try to keep it simple here , you know , showing y'all how to make delicious food .

And today I'm gonna show you how to make fried chicken .

OK ?

So if you struggle with fried chicken , then struggle no more .

I'm gonna show you how I make my fried chicken .

Ok ?

So I am starting out with eight chicken wings .

I've already cleaned them off and pat them dry with a paper towel .

Ok ?

So that's your first step .

Make sure you clean your meat and dry it off .

Ok ?

So when I season my meat , I normally don't measure it out .

I just kind of , you know , season , you know , until I feel it in my spirit to stop .

OK ?

So I started with Larry seasoned salt , ok ?

Um And I started there , I season the front and the back of the chicken and I also am seasoning it with the remaining seasonings that you see on the screen .

Ok ?

So if you are a newbie at seasoning chicken , don't worry , I have made this more than once and I have measured out the ingredients for you .

So if you click down below in the description box , you will find the recipe where I have , you know , I measured it out .

So I've added all of the seasonings and after adding those seasonings , I'm now adding mustard .

I know this might look weird .

Like why is she putting mustard on chicken ?

Well , the mustard is going to act as a tenderizer .

It's not going to overpower the flavor of your chicken .

Don't worry about that .

It will give it , you know , a slight tangy flavor .

But if anything , it's going to really enhance the flavor and like I said , it's going to tenderize the chicken .

So after you add the mustard , just let your chicken rest .

So now let's work on the flour because we're gonna season that too .

Now in this bowl , I have half flour , half corn starch .

The corn starch is what's gonna help the chicken um be a little more crispy .

Like if you fry your chicken without corn starch , you're gonna notice a big difference .

So make sure you have corn starch .

And so I have seasoned the flour with salt , garlic powder , cayenne , red pepper , chili powder , paprika and accent well , accent is a flavor enhancer .

I don't know how you feel about it because you know , it does have MS G in it , but however , it enhances the flavor of the chicken .

So give it a try .

It's not gonna , you , you know it it'll just make your chicken taste better .

So after you have seasoned your flour , make sure that you mix it well .

And taste your flour , please taste your flour and you can make any adjustments to your seasonings if desired .

Ok .

So now you want to coat that chicken with the seasoned flour .

Ok .

So if it's easier for you to use a brown paper bag to do this or to use a container with the lid and shake it up , uh , you can do that .

Ok ?

Or you can use a spoon or you can use your hands , you basically just want to get that , that chicken fully coated with that seasoned flour and shake off any excess flour .

Ok ?

And you're gonna do this for each piece of chicken .

Ok .

And you also want to let it rest for about 10 or 15 minutes .

It should look something like this after about 15 minutes .

So I'm using canola oil .

Now , if you prefer to use olive oil , not olive oil , please don't use olive oil .

If you prefer to use vegetable oil or peanut oil , you can use that as well .

Ok .

And you want to add enough oil to your pot heated on medium high heat .

You want to get that temperature up to about anywhere from 3 25 to maybe like 3 50 .

I try to stay close to 3 25 and you're gonna add the chicken .

You want to make sure that you work in batches .

You don't want to overcrowd your , your pot because you know , that will , will mess up the temperature of the oil and your chicken won't fry that well .

So anywhere from 2 to 3 pieces , depending on the size of your pots is a good number to fry at one time .

Ok .

You want to fry your chicken for about 10 to 12 minutes ?

Ok .

I like to flip my chicken about two or three times y'all .

I try to make sure that it's cooking evenly and I don't , you know , really like burnt chicken .

So that's why I will flip my chicken .

I will rotate and flip it over , you know , as many times as necessary just to make sure that nothing is cooking too fast .

Ok ?

So once your chicken is done , go ahead and remove it from the pot .

Ok ?

Make sure that you have some paper towels on , you know , your plate or whatever , you're gonna sit your chicken on top of those paper towels will help to absorb the oil from the chicken .

Ok .

So go ahead and remove the chicken .

So before you add your next batch of chicken , make sure that your oil has come up to temperature .

Ok ?

So if you have a liquid thermometer , that's gonna be really useful when it comes to frying chicken .

OK .

So this is what we are looking like .

I have fried all eight pieces of chicken .

My kitchen is a mess which is why I just am not a big fan of frying chicken , but I did it , it came out really , really good and I hope that you guys will try , you know this recipe .

Like I said , everything is gonna be down below in the description box .
