How to make these amazing Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This dish is so easy to make. All you need are a bunch of Chicken Wings, some Salt and Pepper, a bit of Flour, and some Oil that\u2019s good to fry with. That\u2019s it! The Chicken Wings are first lightly coated in the Flour which has been aggressively seasoned with Salt and Pepper

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are then lightly shallow fried in hot Oil on the stovetop to brown the outside and begin to form a crispy coating. This technique doesn\u2019t completely cook the Wings through, it\u2019s just to develop that wonderful crust. So, about 2 minutes on each side over a relatively high heat will be enough

You\u2019ll need to batch fry the Chicken Wings during this step. Purely because there\u2019s isn\u2019t really a frying pan in the world large enough to fry 2 lbs. of Chicken Wings in 1 go! You want to avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will result in lowering the Oil temperature and possibly risking the crispiness of the coating

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, simply fry them up in 2 \u2013 3 batches, ensuring you add a little bit more Oil to the pan and allow it to heat up before you add the Wings. Once the Wings are fried, set them aside on an elevated Wire Rack to remove any excess Oil. When all your Wings are cooked, transfer them to a large roasting tray for the final step in the cooking process

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once Shallow Fried, we oven bake the Chicken Wings to completely cook through throughout<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s no denying that the best way to extract the most amount of flavor from Chicken is through oven roasting. There\u2019s nothing quite like the flavor of Roast Chicken, hot out of the oven. So, the final step in cooking these delicious Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings is to roast them in the oven for about 10 minutes at 400F

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the 10 minute mark we recommend checking the internal temperature of the Chicken Wings. If they\u2019re over 160F, then they are good to go! If not, pop them in for a few more minutes until they\u2019re done. It\u2019s a good idea to check the temperature of a few different Wings too, as not only do the Wings come in different sizes, but different parts of the Oven generally tend to be hotter \/ cooler than others

<\/p>\n\n\n

\"Twice
Once pan fried, the Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings are finished in the Oven until perfectly cooked<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

Once cooked, the Wings are ready to go! If you want to add even more Salt and Pepper to them, given them one more generous coating before serving. This is an optional step, and we recommend giving them a taste before adding extra seasoning

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings are great by themselves, and even better with some dipping sauce!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s face it, Wings are made for dipping. The simplicity of this recipe means that almost any dipping sauce is going to pair great with these Wings. Whether it\u2019s a simple Mayonnaise or Sweet Chili Sauce, to something fancier like a spicy Korean Paste or Teriyaki Sauce, you\u2019re going to enjoy dipping these Wings into your favorite sauces!

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We highly recommend giving a bunch of different sauces a try and see which one you like. If you want some inspiration for some delicious Sauces, then check out our dedicated Sauces page here<\/a>. It\u2019s loaded with delicious and easy to prepare Sauces, many of which will be perfect to enjoy with your Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings. I recommend preparing any sauces in advance, as these Wings are best enjoyed piping hot, straight out of the oven

\"Simple
This recipe forms the basis for an amazing Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wing dish, which we also have the recipe for!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

You can use this recipe as the base to create amazing Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our delicious Garlic Parmesan Wings<\/a> recipe follows this exact same recipe. The only difference is once the Wings come out of the oven, they are drenched in a wonderful Garlic Butter that\u2019s been readily prepared on the stovetop. The Wings soak up all that rich, flavored Butter, yet still retain their crispiness

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Serve the Chicken Wings immediately in a large bowl and finish the dish with a generous sprinkling of freshly grated Parmesan Cheese. This dish is a bar-food classic, and one that is so packed full of flavor. It\u2019s a great way to elevate our simple Salt and Pepper Chicken Wings and add additional layers of richness. What you can do is mix and match. Try serving half your wings without the sauce, and the remainder with the Garlic Parmesan Butter. See which ones you prefer!
