Flourless Fried Turkey Wings
Ingredients:
- 4-6 bone-in turkey wings
- 3 tbsp canola oil
- 2 tsp cayenne spice
- 2 tsp paprika
- 2 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 5 garlic cloves
- corn on the cob (halved) X 2
- dash of salt
Instructions:
- Salt your turkey wings to taste.
- Add canola to pot and bring to a light bubble (not a full boil).
- Ensure you add enough canola oil to cover wings, but not so much that your pot overflows when wings are added.
- Once canola oil is at a light boil, carefully add turkey wings. Every 5 minutes slowly increase heat, and rotate wings with tongs, for 30 minutes, until they are nice and crispy.
- After 30 minutes, lower the heat to a simmer, and add peeled garlic cloves for 3 to 5 minutes.
- In a separate pot (halfway through cooking wings) bring water to boil, add salt, and then add halved corn on the cob. Turn heat off and cover for 5 minutes.
- Once wings are finished, plate and cover wings with paprika and cayenne spice. Let sit for 1 minute.
- Serve the tasty, flourless wings with the corn on the cob and impress all your friends!
