INGREDIENTS

  • Chicken

    • 🍗 8 chicken drumsticks, skin removed

  • Marinade

    • ¼ cup hot pepper sauce

  • Frying

    • 1 quart vegetable oil for frying

  • Coating

    • 🌾 ⅓ cup all-purpose flour
    • 2 tablespoons yellow cornmeal
    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon salt

STEPS

1

Gather all ingredients.

2

Place chicken into a resealable plastic bag and pour in hot sauce.

3

Massage the bag to coat chicken with sauce, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours for spicer chicken.

4

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine flour, cornmeal, and salt in another resealable plastic bag.

5

Add the marinated drumsticks, seal the bag, and shake to coat.

6

Fry chicken, uncovered, in the preheated deep fryer, turning occasionally, until golden brown, crispy, and the juices run clear, 25 to 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
