1 tablespoon Lemon juice
½ teaspoon Cayenne powder or Red chile powder
Salt to taste
Turmeric powder, pinch

For coating and dredging

¾ cup All purpose flour
½ teaspoon Garlic powder
½ teaspoon Salt

1 Egg

For the sauce: (vary the sweetness and spice level as per your taste)

3 tablespoon Hot sauce ( Frank's, Burman's, or any brand of your choice)
3 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
1 tablespoon Honey, increase it if you like it sweet

Other ingredients

Vegetable oil, for frying
Roasted peanuts, for garnish
Cilantro, for garnish

Instructions

Marinate the chicken

Marinate the chicken with lemon juice, chile powder, salt, and turmeric.
6 Chicken wings pieces, 1 tablespoon Lemon juice, ½ teaspoon Cayenne powder or Red chile powder, Salt to taste, Turmeric powder, pinch
Keep it in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours, preferably overnight.

Dry-wet-dry-method

Whisk the egg and keep it aside.
1 Egg
In a plastic cover / Ziploc bag, add the flour, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne powder.
¾ cup All purpose flour, ½ teaspoon Garlic powder, ½ teaspoon Salt, ½ teaspoon Cayenne powder
Add the marinated chicken wings to the flour mixture and give this a nice mix so that the flour gets distributed on the wings equally.
Keep the leftover flour aside and use it for the next coating. You can also use fresh flour or bread crumbs here if required.
Coat each of these wings in the egg and then coat again in the flour.

How to fry crispy chicken wings

Heat oil in a heavy-bottomed pan for frying.
Vegetable oil, for frying
Once the oil is hot, drop chicken wings in batches and fry on medium to medium-high flame till they are crispy and golden brown in color. Do not overcrowd the pan.
Transfer this to a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.

Prepare honey sriracha sauce

Add hot sauce, sriracha sauce, and honey in a large bowl and mix. Taste and vary the sweetness and spiciness.
3 tablespoon Hot sauce ( Frank's, Burman's, or any brand of your choice), 3 tablespoon Sriracha sauce, 1 tablespoon Honey, increase it if you like it sweet
Add fried chicken wings to this sauce and toss till the sauce evenly coats the wings.
Garnish it with roasted and crushed peanuts and cilantro. Serve hot, and enjoy.
Roasted peanuts, for garnish, Cilantro, for garnish

Notes

Use bread crumbs instead of flour if desired for the second coat in the dry wet dry method.
To check if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of wings and check if it sizzles and comes up.
Vary all the spices as per your taste.
