FAQs
1. Can I bake these chicken wings instead of frying them?
Yes! Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30-40 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy. You might need to broil for the last few minutes for extra crispiness.
2. What can I substitute for fish sauce?
Soy sauce or tamari can be used as a substitute for fish sauce, but the flavor will be slightly different. Start with a smaller amount and adjust to taste.
3. How long can I store leftover chicken wings?
Store leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They are also great reheated in the oven or air fryer.
