People as a matter of fact love to eat chicken wings. There are so many ways to prepare chicken wings and they make overwhelming appetizers and party foods. One of the questions I am often asked is, "How long to cook chicken wings".
Chicken wings can be cooked using some distinct methods. I prefer deep frying wings but you can also pan fry your wings or bake them. Let's take a look at each formula and you can settle for yourself which formula is best for you.
Pan Fried Chicken
Before you cook your chicken wings you will need to make sure they are completely thawed. This can be concluded by letting them sit in the refrigerator for a day or two before cooking. When you are ready to cook your wings, rinse them in cold water and pat them dry with a paper towel.
If you will be deep frying your chicken wings be sure they are dry before placing them in the hot oil to avoid painful splatters. Heat your oil to 375 degrees. Once the oil is hot you can begin cooking your wings. Fill the fryer basket with a particular layer of wings. You want the oil to just cover the wings when lowered into the oil. Lower the wings into the oil gently and cook for 12 to 15 minutes. This will make a nicely browned chicken wing that is crispy on the surface and juicy and tender inside.
You may also opt to pan fry your wings if you do not have a deep fryer. This would be my second choice. Use a large frying pan for this method. Pour enough oil in the pan to cover the bottom. Heat the oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot place your wings in a particular layer into the hot oil. Cook the wings for 6 to 7 minutes and then turn them over to cook for someone else 6 to 7 minutes. You could also use a wok to fry your wings. This will also make a nice crispy surface and tender inside.
My least popular formula of cooking chicken wings is to bake them. Baking them is a much healthier alternative to all of the frying but the wings will not be nearly as crispy. Any way if you need to bake your wings heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the wings in a glass baking dish that has been coated with a slight non-stick cooking spray. Bake the wings for about 30 to 40 minutes. You want to be sure the juices run clear from the wings.
Well there you go three methods to cook chicken wings. All the time remember to wash your hands and all utensils when working with raw chicken. Enjoy those tasty slight treats.
