Best Garlic Chicken Wings with Fried Potatoes
I am a sucker for chicken wings.
And I have to admit that I prepare them so often in the evening for dinner.
So much so that my husband sometimes says ‘chicken wings again?’ when he asks me what’s for dinner tonight.
They are so addictive.
Don’t you think?
My favorite way to prepare them?
Air Fryer
I love to rub them with this gorgeous Texas bbq rub that an American friend brought with her earlier this year.
After that I let them marinate a bit in the fridge.
And then I toss the wings in my Airfryer.
You have no idea how delicious they taste!
Wings & Coleslaw
I don’t even have to add any oil to the wings because they are so fatty, greasy and juicy already.
The meat almost falls off those tiny bones once they are ready.
Oh and that salty sweet rub adds so much flavor. I always serve chicken wings with a good old creamy coleslaw.
And don’t bother to put paper napkins on the table: you better use a roll of kitchen paper to clean your greasy hands in the end.
You will need it!
Coleslaw & Wings
Chicken wings and coleslaw.
What an excellent dinner, every single time I make it.
How often do you make chicken wings at home for dinner?

No coleslaw this time but a batch of freshly fried potatoes.

Very nice recipe i like it Can i add vinegar alternate wine ?im muslim i cant use wine.
Can u allow me that i want to make it for my youtube channel?
since it calls for dry white wine I assume if I were to use sherry it should be the dry kind as well? as opposed to sweet?
