Instructions
Cut and Dry Chicken
Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels, then cut into bite‑size cubes if not already done.
Time: PT5M
Prepare the Batter
In a mixing bowl combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. In a separate bowl whisk the egg with milk, then pour into the dry mix and stir until just combined; the batter should be slightly thick.
Time: PT5M
Heat Oil
Fill the large pot with vegetable oil to a depth of about 3 inches and heat to 350°F (175°C).
Time: PT5M
Temperature: 350°F
Fry the Chicken
Working in small batches, dip chicken pieces into the batter, let excess drip off, then carefully lower into hot oil. Fry 3–4 minutes until golden and cooked through.
Time: PT10M
Temperature: 350°F
Drain and Rest
Remove fried chicken with tongs, place on a wire rack set over a baking sheet, and let rest 2 minutes to let excess oil drip away.
Time: PT2M
Make Lemon Pepper Seasoning
Combine lemon zest, black pepper, garlic powder, and salt in a small bowl; set aside.
Time: PT3M
Toss Lemon Pepper Wings
Place a portion of the fried chicken in a large bowl, sprinkle with the lemon pepper seasoning, and toss until evenly coated.

Prepare Garlic Parmesan Sauce
Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat, add minced garlic and sauté 30 seconds, then stir in grated Parmesan and chopped parsley; remove from heat.
Time: PT5M
Coat Garlic Parmesan Wings
Toss another batch of fried chicken in the warm garlic‑parmesan sauce until each piece is glossy.

While the wings are coating, prepare the following sauces in separate bowls: Hickory Smoked Barbecue (ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, liquid smoke, water), Hawaiian (pineapple juice, ketchup, brown sugar, soy sauce, smoked paprika), Hot Honey Rub (hot sauce, honey, butter), and Honey Mustard (honey, Dijon mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice). Stir each until smooth.

Toss Wings in Remaining Sauces
Divide the remaining fried chicken into four portions and toss each with one of the prepared sauces (Barbecue, Hawaiian, Hot Honey Rub, Honey Mustard).
