- Shake bag to mix flour. put 2 pieces of chicken in bag at a time and shake to coat.. place coated wings on newspaper until you are ready to fry it..
- Put oil in skillet (I love cast iron). turn skillet on Med high until oil is hot. to check if it is ready put a pinch of flour in the oil and see if it sizzles or fries..
