Provided by Brandi Crawford

Categories     dinner     lunch

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 pounds chicken wings (I use split wings/party wings.)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour (See notes.)
cooking oil spray I use olive oil.
1 1/2 tablespoons chives
1 1/2 tablespoons dried dill
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste (See notes.)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
  • Pat the chicken dry and place it on a large bowl or plastic bag.
  • Add the flour and homemade ranch seasoning to the chicken. Ensure the chicken is fully coated. You may notice leftover spices in the bottom of the bowl (if you used a bowl to coat the chicken). Once the chicken is on the sheet pan, I like to sprinkle these remaining spices over the chicken to ensure optimal flavor.
  • Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and add the wings.
  • Bake the wings for 20 minutes and then open and flip the wings. Bake for an additional 20-30 minutes. Ensure the wings reach a minimum temperature of 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.

  • Add the flour and homemade ranch seasoning to the chicken. Ensure the chicken is fully coated. You may notice leftover spices in the bottom of the bowl (if you used a bowl to coat the chicken).

  • Place the chicken in the air fryer basket. Spritz the chicken with cooking oil.
  • Air fry for 15 minutes on 400 degrees.
  • Open the air fryer and flip the chicken. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes or until crisp. Ensure the wings reach a minimum temperature of 165 degrees. Use a meat thermometer.

FRIED CHICKEN WINGS WITH RANCH



Fried Chicken Wings with Ranch image

The dressing here is all about the garlic. The garlic and onion powders are important for that true ranch flavor we know from childhood. I serve these wings with lots of sliced carrots and cucumbers on the side for dunking in the dressing. I also just put out homemade or jarred pickle spears too. It's nice to take a break every few wings and eat your vegetables.

Categories     appetizer

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup (8 ounces) sour cream
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup pickle juice
2 large cloves garlic, grated
1 tablespoon chopped dill
1 tablespoon hot sauce, such as Tabasco
2 teaspoons garlic powder
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 1/2 quarts canola oil
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup cornstarch
3 1/2 pounds chicken wings split into drumettes and flats (about 18 each)
Kosher salt
1 large lemon, thinly sliced, for serving
Sliced carrots and cucumbers and pickle spears, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Make the dressing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, buttermilk and pickle juice with the grated garlic, dill, hot sauce, garlic powder and onion powder. Taste for seasoning.
  • Prepare the wings: Pour the oil into a deep, heavy-bottomed pot. Heat the oil to 350 degrees F over medium heat. Prepare 2 rimmed baking sheets, one lined with a wire rack. In a large bowl, combine the flour and cornstarch. Separate the larger wings and the smaller ones. Season all of them with salt and toss in the flour mix. Shake off the excess.
  • Fry the wings : Lower half of the larger wings into the oil and gently "swirl" the oil with a slotted spoon as they fry. This swirling will assure they fry more evenly on all sides. When they are light to medium brown, 5 to 7 minutes, remove them with the slotted spoon and lay them out on the wire rack to cool. Season with salt. Cook the rest of the wings in batches, keeping the cooked wings warm in the second baking sheet in the oven until all are fried. Leave the wings in the oven for at least 10 minutes to assure all are cooked through.
  • Arrange the wings on a serving platter with the ranch dressing alongside for dunking. Serve with the lemon, carrots, cucumbers and pickles.

Tips:

- To achieve extra crispy chicken wings, pat them dry with paper towels before coating them in the seasoned flour mixture. This will help the coating adhere better and create a crispier crust. - For a more flavorful coating, use a combination of different spices and herbs, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper. You can also add a teaspoon of lemon zest for a citrusy kick. - To ensure the chicken wings are cooked through, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 165°F (74°C). - If you don't have buttermilk on hand, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using. - For a healthier version of these chicken wings, bake them in the oven instead of frying them. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and bake the chicken wings for 20-25 minutes, or until they are cooked through and crispy.
