Prep Time: 15 Minutes
Cook Time: 30 Minutes
Total Time: 45 Minutes
INGREDIENTS
30-35 Chicken Wings (About 3lbs)
For Deep Frying:
Simply Pure Peanut Oil (Enough to fill your fryer)
For Marinating:
1 Tablespoon Summerfield Michui
2 Teaspoons Sea Salt
1 Teaspoon White Pepper
½ Teaspoon Grated Ginger
2 Cloves Garlic
For Dry Batter:
1 Cup Flour
1 Cup Corn or Potato Starch
1 Teaspoon Baking Powder
DIRECTIONS
1. Season your wings with ginger, salt, pepper, garlic and michui – marinate for 2 hours or make the day before and store in the fridge overnight covered.
2. Mix dry batter ingredients in a large bowl as you will be tossing the wings around in the bowl, so give yourself enough room to toss. Alternatively, make your flour mixture in a large bag and toss the wings in the bag for easy clean up!
3. Fill a heavy bottomed pot or deep fryer with enough oil to cover 2-3 inches of depth or to max fill line. Heat oil to 350ºF and prepare a draining rack.
4. Fry battered wings for 5-7 minutes until lightly golden, then remove from oil and rest on draining rack. Cook in batches to avoid the oil temperature dropping too much.
5. Let wings cool slightly for 5 to 10 minutes, and while cooling, reheat oil to 375ºF.
6. Refry wings for an additional 5-7 minutes until deep golden brown, wings should cook for a total of 10-14 minutes or until they have reached an internal temperature of 165ºF.
7. Serve immediately with a side of salt and pepper to dip the chicken in, or add a spicy sauce for some traditional Korean flare!
