Here’s a recipe for Mustard Fried Chicken Wings that combines the zesty flavor of mustard with the crispy texture of fried chicken:

Ingredients:

2 lbs chicken wings, split into drumettes and flats
1 cup whole grain or Dijon mustard
2 cups buttermilk
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tbsp onion powder
1 tbsp paprika
1 tsp cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying (vegetable, peanut, or canola oil)

Directions:

Marinate the Chicken:

In a large bowl, mix the mustard and buttermilk until well combined.
Add the chicken wings to the mixture, ensuring they are fully coated.
Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best results.

Prepare the Breading:

In another large bowl, combine the flour, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well.

Coat the Wings:

Remove the wings from the marinade, letting any excess drip off.
Dredge each wing in the flour mixture, pressing the flour into the wings to ensure a good coating. Shake off any excess flour.

Frying Preparation:

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large, deep skillet to 350°F. Ensure there’s enough oil to submerge the wings.

Fry the Wings:

Carefully add the wings to the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the fryer. This ensures even cooking and crispiness.
Fry for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the wings are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.

Drain and Serve:

Use a slotted spoon or spider strainer to remove the wings from the oil, allowing them to drain on paper towels or a wire rack.

Optional Seasoning:

For an extra kick, toss the wings in a mixture of additional mustard and honey or sprinkle with a blend of spices or your favorite hot sauce.

Tips:

For an extra crispy texture, you can do a double breading. After the initial coat of flour, dip the wings back into the buttermilk mixture, then back into the flour.
Let the wings rest for a few minutes after frying. This allows the juices to redistribute, making them juicier.

This recipe will give you chicken wings with a crispy exterior that’s flavored with mustard, offering a unique twist on traditional fried chicken wings.
