This is for those who like a good sweat going on to compliment their hot wings. Definitely not for those who like mild, but who prefer some seriously kickin chicken wings! Use the ingredients below to make your own southern style chicken wings:
4 pounds of chicken wings
Buttermilk Soak
• 3 cups buttermilk
• 1/2 package of Ragin Cajun spice flour Dredge
Flour Dredge
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 package of Ragin Cajun spice (If you want your wings hot then use 1 whole packet)
In a large bowl, combine the buttermilk with 1/2 package of Ragin Cajun. Add the chicken and stir to coat. Let stand at room temperature for 2 hours or in the fridge for 4 hours.
In a large zip lock bag mix the flour with the Ragin Cajun spice. Set a rack on a baking sheet. Remove the chicken from the buttermilk soak and dredge the chicken in the flour mixture. Transfer the coated chicken to the rack and let stand for 30 minutes.
In a deep skillet, heat 1 inch of oil to 350 degrees. Set another rack over a baking sheet and line with paper towels. Fry the chicken in batches turning once until golden brown and inside temperature is 165 degrees. About 15-18 minutes. Transfer the chicken to the paper-lined rack and let stand 5 minutes before serving.
