Ingredients:

  • Chicken wings
  • Seasoned salt
  • Adobo
  • Garlic salt
  • Garlic powder
  • Honey
  • Bbq sauce
  • Oil
  • Salt and flour
  • Grated Almonds

Sprinkle enough, but not too much, of each listed seasoning over the chicken.

Put some flour inside a medium sized bowl and add a slight bit of each of the seasonings (also sprinkle with some grated almonds). Make sure that there is adequate flour in the bowl to coat all the chicken pieces.

Check to make sure that the oil in the frying pan is hot and dip your chicken into the flour, surface it all over, then exchange it into the frying pan.

Let the chicken cook in the oil until it is golden brown all over, then poke a fork through the chicken to see if it's cooked, there shouldn't be any pink coloured meat and the juices should run clear.

Mix the Bbq sauce and honey together in a medium-sized bowl.

Preheat the oven. Take the chicken out of the pan and put it into the Honey Bbq sauce, then put it in the oven on a baking pan for about 6-8 minutes. Then serve.

So there you have it... All you need to know about how to cook Bbq chicken, for summer or winter!
