About spicy chicken wings recipe
Of the plethora of chicken recipes I have tried, I admit that I love chicken wings, and the spicy sriracha chicken wing recipe below is my favorite and the best I have prepared. These sriracha wings have a perfect balance of sweetness, spiciness, and crispiness. All you have to do is take a pile of napkins and start nibbling. I bet you can’t stop eating just one! I generally marinate the chicken wings overnight. This will enhance the taste. Dredge the chicken (dry-wet-dry method) to get a crispy and crunchy texture outside. I have tried both methods - deep fry and oven-baked wings. We love and prefer the fried version. But if you like the healthier version, feel free to bake, and you won’t be disappointed. Apart from spicy sriracha wings, I also prepare KFC-style chicken wings and tenders and spicy garlic and tandoori chicken wings in a similar way. I will soon share the recipe for the same. What is your favorite sauce or recipe for chicken wings? Leave a comment below, and I would definitely love to give it a try.

How to make easy crispy honey sriracha chicken wings?
Marinate the chicken
Marinate the chicken with lemon juice, chile powder, salt, and turmeric. Keep it in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours, preferably overnight.
Dry-wet-dry-Method
Whisk the egg and keep it aside. In a plastic cover / Ziploc bag, add the flour, garlic powder, salt, and 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. 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. 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.
Tip:
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.
