Crispy fried chicken is a crowd-pleasing hit as a spicy appetizer for your weekend. To begin with, coat the chicken with potato starch. Make the fried chicken sauce by mixing red pepper paste with honey and other ingredients.
Deep fry the chicken in hot oil (375F) until crunchy and crispy. The biggest trick to successful deep frying is oil temperature. Too low, and you’ll end up with a soggy mess.
While the wings bake, you can make the buffalo wing sauce. It’s easy. Melt some butter in a saucepan and then stir in hot pepper sauce. When it’s combined, season the sauce with garlic powder and salt. Coat the crispy baked wings in the sauce and serve with celery as well as your favorite dipping sauce.
