Do it. Go down the aisle of your local grocery store where they keep the chicken fry mixes. There’s usually quite a few. Hot. Mild. Crunchy. Extra crunchy. All sorts of them. Grab some. Grab them all. And go home and make some wings! I highly recommend you start out with some Louisiana Fish Fry Spicy Fried chicken wings. It’s the perfect batter, the kind that sticks to the wings. All over. Crunchy. Oh so crunchy. Seasoned perfectly with a little spicy kick.
Make It Buffalo-Style
Yep, you sure could eat these Louisiana Fish Fry Spicy Fried chicken wings ‘naked’. No, no, not without clothes on! I mean without any sauce! Me, I wanted a little Buffalo feel to mine. A little more heat. So I served a little cup of Buffalo wing sauce on the side for dipping. I recommend dipping these wings instead of putting them in a bowl and dousing them with sauce and tossing. Tossing will knock that beautiful, delicious, crunchy coating off. What good would that be? So don’t do that. Dip them, if you want.

Louisiana Fish Fry Spicy Fried Chicken Wings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 6 chicken wings flats and drumettes separated, tips saved to make stock
- 2 ½ tablespoons Louisiana Fish Fry Spicy Fried Chicken mix
- ¼ cup water
- ¼ cup Louisiana Fish Fry Spicy Fried Chicken mix or more, if needed
- Your favorite wing sauce optional
- vegetable oil for frying
Instructions
- Heat 2-3" of oil in a deep fryer or Dutch oven to 350 F. While the oil is heating, prepare the wings.
- Combine the 2 1/2 tablespoons of mix and water in a small bowl. I like to use a whisk to get the mix well distributed.
- Place the 1/4 cup of mix in a flat bowl such as a small salad bowl.
- Working in batches as needed, first coat the wings in the wet mix. Get them all good and wet on all sides.
- Transfer the wings to the dry mix and roll them around, pressing lightly, to coat completely. Add more mix if you need it. Don't be shy!
- Fry the wings 8-12 minutes or until they reach 165 F. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
- Serve with your favorite sauce for dipping.
