7) Heat oil in a pot to 350°F. Add a few pieces of wings at a time in the pot. Do not overcrowd the pot to avoid the temperature of the oil to drop. This may result in the wings turning soggy.
8) Fry wings for a minute or 2 on each side. Remove on to a paper towel to soak up excess oil. Repeat process for the rest of the wings.
