Step-by-Step Instructions for Super Crispy Chinese Chicken Wings
  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine your chicken wings with an egg, oyster sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, white pepper, and a drizzle of oil. Mix well and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. In another bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, and baking powder.
  3. Coat the marinated wings with the flour mixture evenly.
  4. Heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and fry wings in batches for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Drain on a wire rack.
  5. Let the wings rest for about 10 minutes. Increase oil temperature to 400°F (204°C) and fry wings again for 2-3 minutes for extra crunch.
  6. Transfer wings to a serving platter and serve with dipping sauces and vegetable sticks.
