THE GARLIC AND BUTTER COMBO

Garlic is one of the base aromatics in every Filipino (or SouthAsian) dish. It has a unique pungent and earthy flavor and gives off an intense aroma which makes every dish 100 times better. Even some oil infused with garlic will make the egg fried rice extra yummy.

Butter is a dairy product which, aside from being used as a bread spread, is usually used instead of oil for fried and sauteed dishes. You’ll know a dish is “yayamanin” when it uses butter instead of oil. What makes butter stand out is its unique buttery and dairy aroma and flavor.

These two ingredients are just some of the top tier ingredients in the food world. When combined together, these two makes the great dishes.

Garlic butter combination has been one of the best flavors in town. It is usually made into a sauce which is the poured over steaks or a dipping sauce or a meat coating. Even a bread flavor!

CRISPY GARLIC BUTTER CHICKEN WINGS

Chicken wings are one of the best all day snacks. One reason for this is that there is an infinite sauces you can coat them or sauces to dip them on. Experimenting with sauces is super fun, not unless you have suprise visitors at home.

It was a regular Tuesday for us and we will be having chicken wings for our afternoon meryenda. It was a long discussion on what sauce I will be making, but we ended up with mango jalapeno sauce. We even had a spin the wheel for this! I was about to make this sauce from scratch since I want to use the freshest ingredients but some suprise visitors suddenly came. It was out titas and titos from another faraway province. Good thing I have just finished double frying the chicken wings.

I started thinking of the easiest sauce I can make but would not look like it is rushed. Garlic butter sauce came to my mind and within just minutes, I was able to make a super awesome coating for my chicken wings.

If you wanna know how to make some crispy garlic butter chicken wings, read and follow the simple steps below. Happy cooking!

HOW TO MAKE CRISPY GARLIC BUTTER CHICKEN WINGS RECIPE

Making this crunchy snack is super easy and straightforward. Start by gathering the freshest chicken wings you can get. You can get this from the meat section of the grocery and in the market. Try to smell the chicken before buying. If there is no smell, then it is definitely fresh. Wash and clean them, and make sure there are no feathers left.

Let’s marinate the chicken wings first before anything else. Make the batter by combining the salt, pepper garlic powder, flour and water. Adding the garlic powder will intensify the garlic flavor inside and out. You can add other herbs and spices if you like.

Now, let me share with you one of the greatest hacks for a crispy chicken wing. The chicken coating would be the cornstarch. You might be surprise that we are not using flour for this one. The difference between the cornstarch and the flour is that the cornstarch is purely starch while the flour is not. The starch is what makes the chicken crispy. This is why you might have encountered other chicken recipes using the combination of flour and cornstarch as the coating.

Fry the chicken wings in deep oil. Let them rest for a while. Another hack is to double fry the chicken wings until fully golden brown in color. This may take up to 10 to 12 minutes but the extra waiting time is super duper worth it. Let the chicken wings be at rest and aerated for a while. The extra oil in the chicken will dry, making the chicken extra crispy.

The last part of this recipe is the very simple garlic butter sauce. This sauce is simply made by infusing the garlic flavor in the butter by sauteing, but of course, we’ll do it in an extra way. Aside from this, I added soy sauce and brown sugar in the sauce for a more umami flavor and some hint of sweetness. Adding them is optional but is highly recommended. Just remember not to cook the butter for a long time since the buttery aroma also “evaporates” after quite a time.

Simply toss the crispy chicken wings in the garlic butter sauce. Alternatively, you can just serve them separately and use the sauce as a dip.

I papak them or have it with some hot steaming rice. I usually make extra garlic butter sauce to pour some on my rice. Yum!
