Chicken wings are an all-time favourite for most people. They are easy and fast to make if you are looking for a very quick meal to rustle up (If you are not trying to marinate for hours though), try making chicken wings.
For the crispiness, most people add flour to it, but for this recipe try using baking powder instead of the usual flour.
Baking powder gives them that extra crispiness on the outside and soft/juicy goodness inside.
P.S: DO NOT REPLACE BAKING POWDER WITH BAKING SODA for this recipe. There is a difference and you’d only have yourself to blame if you do.
