Garlic Parmesan Fried Chicken

I know they look quite ugly but these chicken wings taste amazing!  Those bits of stuff on top are garlic bits with parsley.  When they are put together, lipsmacking flavour comes out. Promise.

What you need:

9 pieces large chicken wings, separated into drumettes, flats and tips

1/2 cup plain flour

1 1/2 teapoons salt

1/2 teaspoon paprika

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

about 1/3 – 1/2 cup butter

about 6 large pieces of garlic, minced

1/2 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese

1-2 tablespoons dried parsley (fresh is best but I didn’t have them today)

What you need to do:

Mix together in a large container the flour, salt, paprika and garlic powder.  Make sure they are thoroughly combined so everything (especially the salt) is evenly distributed.

Put the chicken pieces a few pieces at a time into the flour mixture, put the lid on and shake until they are all coated.  Do the same with the rest of your chicken.

Fry in hot oil and then drain (I cook about 10 minutes each side to make sure they are cooked through, as my wings are huge).  After draining, place the chicken pieces in a container with a lid.

In a separate pan, melt butter.  Add garlic and cook for awhile (do not burn).  Add the parmesan and parsley. At this point, you decide if your sauce needs more butter or is just saucy enough.  I started with 1/4 cup butter and added some more until I liked how it looked.  Mix together and continue cooking for about 1 minute.   Pour this sauce onto your fried chicken, put the lid on and shake to cover all pieces.

Serve.  Yum.
