Crispy Seasoned Chicken Wings are easy to make & are a great game day snack. Baked to perfection & flash fried for that perfectly crispy skin, DELICIOUS!
It’s no secret – we love our game day food in this house. From drinks, to wings, to cheesy dips, we make so many amazing recipes to enjoy when it’s time for football. This time of year is bitter-sweet for us because while we love the playoffs, they also signify that the end of the season is near. Then we have 7 months of waiting until pre-season starts. It’s so long to wait, but that is what makes these game day recipes that much better. I love our Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings & while they do have a crisp skin, sometimes I really want something crisper & more like fried chicken. I think the crisp skin really helps them not get soggy when tossing them in sauce or dipping in Sriracha Ranch, which is how these Crispy Seasoned Chicken Wings were born.

The secret to these is to bake them in the oven until fully cooked & then we toss them in some flour before we flash fry them in the dutch oven with some peanut oil. It gives remarkable flavor & that crunch is like no other. I love baking these because that gives me time to prepare everything else I am serving on game day. Then when they are done baking it’s just a quick dip in the oil & they are ready to enjoy. It also helps keep the oil light instead of them soaking in it to cook through. It’s fast & I can tell you, that extra step is worth it if you like crisp wings & drumettes. WOW! I have a hard time sharing these with everyone. They are THAT GOOD!

My husband LOVES wings…though they’re not my favorite. I wonder if this recipe will change my mind. Love the idea of baking first and then flash-frying to reduce greasiness.

Wow!!!! These wings are fantastic. Everyone loved them. I did not change any ingredients or instructions. It’s perfect as written. I love that this recipe is easy to make. Once you have the chicken in the oven, half of the work is done. Second half goes quick too. Love the idea of sprinkling with Parmesan cheese & granulated garlic once done in the oil. Very tasty! This recipe is genius & restaurant quality. Thank you for the very best chicken wing recipe!

I forgot to buy peanut oil. Will corn oil work?
Thanks
Gina Kleinworth says
It will – but it will take a lot longer. Corn oil doesn’t heat the same as peanut.
