Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Mix one egg into buttermilk.
  2. Place halved chicken wings in a bowl and coat with the buttermilk/egg mixture and allow to sit for at least 30 minutes, refrigerated.
  3. In a bowl, add all remaining ingredients, except the crushed Saltines
  4. Place crushed Saltines in a separate bowl (toss a little black, or cayenne pepper in there, too, if you like)
  5. In a deep skillet heat the vegetable to approximately 350 degrees. A deep fry, or candy thermometer works great for this
  6. Dredge the chicken in the flour mixture and then back into the buttermilk mix, finishing them in the saltine cracker mix (it's ok to double dip, here!)
  7. Allow chicken to sit for a five minutes to allow the coating to 'grab hold' of the chicken skin
  8. Fry in oil for ten minutes, turning often. Do not over crowd the deep fryer
  9. Remove from the oil allowing residue to drip off before putting on a plate lined with paper towels, or toss them in a paper bag.
  10. For bare wings, sprinkle additional salt on chicken immedeiately and serve.
  11. For Buffalo, immediately place the wings and sauce into a sealable container. I use my 4 QT sauce pan with the lid on it. Shake until they're completely coated, and serve.
