Ingredients

• 6 thawed chicken wings, washed and patted dry
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
• 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
• 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
• 1/4 cup brown sugar

• 3/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
• vegetable oil (for frying)

Recipe

• 1 mix all spices for the rub and sprinkle over the chicken wings.

• 3 cover and place in fridge for at least an hour.
• 4 heat oil in deep fryer or large skillet to 350°f if using a skillet make sure your oil is hot enough to cause bubbles to form when you stick the handle part of a wooden spoon straight down into it.
• 5 deep fry the wings in the oil until golden, about 7-10 mins then remove from oil and drain.
• 6 let the oil come back up to 350f and then place your wings back in frying oil until cooked through, about 5 more minutes (depends on if you are using deep fryer or skillet).
• 7 preheat oven to 365°f.
• 8 meanwhile, place all sauce ingredients in small saucepan and heat over medium low just until sugar is melted and flavors are combined.
• 9 drain the wings on paper towels then toss in the sauce.
• 10 place wings on top of some non-stick tin foil on a baking sheet and place in oven
• 11 baste with remaining sauce every 5-7 minutes turning each time until wings are caramelized and sticky.
