This mustard fried chicken recipe uses wings seasoned with a delicate mixture of spices, coated in mustard, and floured before being fried until crisp. If you don't have a deep fryer, you may use a heavy skillet, but I recommend a deep fryer for crispier chicken. This chicken is so good!
Ingredients
- 5 pounds chicken wings , separated at joints, tips discarded
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons onion powder
- 2 tablespoons ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
- 1 tablespoon monosodium glutamate , MSG, or Accent flavor enhancer

- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 quart oil for frying , or as needed
Instructions

1
Season chicken wings on both sides with garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, seasoned salt, and MSG.

Use a basting brush to coat each wing with a thin layer of mustard. Pour flour into a plastic bag, add chicken, and shake to coat.

3
Heat oil in a deep fryer or heavy skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
4
Cook chicken in hot oil until no longer pink and the juices run clear, about 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Copycat Lofthouse Cookies
These copycat Lofthouse cookies have a texture that is spot-on—soft, cakey, and ultra-tender. The thick, fluffy layer of pink buttercream frosting makes them just like the originals, and even more delicious.

This vegan apple pie recipe is delicious! My family raved — and I made it myself. With no animal products, the crust is very buttery and light. Serve right out of the oven, chilled, or slightly warmed.

My mother found this turkey nuggets recipe about 20 years ago. A great find! This is a great recipe for leftover turkey or chicken. You can even use tuna or salmon. My kids love it, especially paired with leftover mashed potato cakes.
