1-2 lbs chicken wings
garlic salt and pepper to season
2 tablespoons flour
canola oil for frying
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
Heat the oil in a dutch oven or fryer until hot enough for frying.
In a large bowl, toss the chicken with garlic salt and pepper to coat.
Sprinkle in the flour and toss gingerly. I don't want it completely dusted with flour - just enough to add a little crunch when its fried.
Carefully place a few pieces of seasoned chicken in the hot oil, being careful not to cook too many at a time (since it will lower the oil temp too much and you won't get a nice crispness).
Fry the chicken for about 5 minutes and place on a baking sheet. Once all chicken wings have been fried briefly in the hot oil and placed on the baking sheet, bake the wings in the preheated oven for 7-10 minutes. You'll notice the chicken will turn golden brown.
Serve hot.
2 medium - large Yukon gold potatoes
water for boiling
1/2 cup milk, warmed
2-3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup shredded cheese ( I used a Taco blend for flavor)
1-2 stalks green onions, sliced
garlic salt and pepper to taste
Boil the potatoes skin on (unless you prefer them off) in water until tender; drain.
Mash the potatoes and slowly add in the warmed milk and melted butter.
Continue to mash until you have your desired consistency.
Add the shredded cheese and green onions; stir to combine.
Season with garlic salt and pepper to taste.
What a great meal - I love your cheesy mashed potatoes!
