Ingredients
- 2 lb chicken wings separated into drumettes and wings
- 1 cup Potato Starch or cornstarch
- 2 cups vegetable oil or any neutral oil for frying wings
- 1 large red chili pepper finely chopped
- 1 green onion finely chopped
Wing Marinade
- ¼ cup lime juice freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoon Regular soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon fish sauce
- 2 tablespoon white granulated sugar or cane sugar
Garlic Butter Sauce
- ⅓ cup butter unsalted and melted
- 4 tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed
- 2 tablespoon white granulated sugar or cane sugar
- 1 clove garlic minced
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine marinade ingredients until the sugar has dissolved completely and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, add separated drumettes and wings and add marinade. Marinate wings for 20 minutes at most, no more than that.
- In small bowl, combine ingredients for garlic butter sauce as listed and set aside.
- Generously coat the marinated wings in potato starch. Press the starch into the wing, shaking off any excess.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat (around 350 degrees F with a digital instant read thermometer). Fry the coated wings in small batches to prevent reducing the oil temperature.
- Deep fry wings on both sides for a total of 6-7 minutes until golden brown. Chicken wings are safe to consume at an internal temperature of 165 F with a digital instant read thermometer.
- Transfer fried wings to a wire rack or paper-towel lined plate to drain off excess oil. Once excess oil is removed, transfer them to a large bowl and keep them warm.
- While wings are still warm, pour garlic butter sauce over wings and add green onions and red chili. Toss wings in sauce and aromatics. Serve hot and enjoy!
