Take a marinated chicken wing and lightly coat it in the prepared spicy rub mix. Next, transfer the seasoned wing to the plain flour coating mix and coat it thoroughly, ensuring all sides are covered. Dip the flour-coated wing back into the marinade, then coat it once more in the plain flour coating mix to create a double coating. Repeat this process for all the remaining chicken wings.

Heat cooking oil in a large pot or deep fryer. To test if the oil is hot enough, insert a wooden chopstick; if bubbles form around it, the oil is ready. Carefully place the coated chicken wings into the hot oil. Fry the chicken wings until they turn golden brown and become crispy.
