FAQ
1. Can I use drumsticks instead of wings?
Yes! Adjust frying time to about 12–15 minutes since drumsticks are larger.
2. What’s the secret to extra crispy wings?
Double dredging in flour and frying in small batches ensures a crunchy coating.
3. Can I air fry these wings?
Yes—coat the wings as directed, spray lightly with oil, and air fry at 400°F for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway.
