Ingredients
- 12 chicken drumettes
- 2 cups potato chips, crushed
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 eggs, beaten
- Oil for frying
Directions
- In a shallow bowl, combine the crushed potato chips, flour, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Dip each chicken drumette into the beaten eggs, then roll it in the chip mixture, pressing lightly to adhere. Repeat with the rest of the drumettes.
- In a deep pan or deep fryer, heat oil to 350°F (175°C).
- Carefully place the coated chicken drumettes into the hot oil, in batches, and fry for about 8-10 minutes or until golden brown and crispy. Turn them occasionally for even cooking.
- Remove the drumettes from the oil using tongs or a slotted spoon, and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve the chip chicken lollipops hot and enjoy them as an appetizer or main dish. They pair perfectly with a dipping sauce of your choice, such as barbecue sauce or ranch dressing.
