Preparation

  1. Preheat deep fryer to 350°F.

  3. Once liquid has reduced, create a corn starch slurry by mixing equal parts of corn starch and cold water. Add this slurry to the saucepan and whisk to prevent lumps. Bring sauce back to a boil. Once boiling, remove from heat and reserve.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, toss raw chicken wings with Cajun seasoning and reserve. 
  5. Per order, toss seasoned chicken wings in flour, and deep fry until golden brown and an internal temperature of 165°F has been reached.
  6. Plate hot chicken wings and drizzle with sweet and spicy wing sauce. Garnish with chopped parsley and pickled red onions.
