When frying chicken wings, it is important to consider pre-cooking them first. Boiling the wings prior to frying can help keep them juicy and tender, as boiling helps to release some of the excess fat and proteins, which can make fried chicken tough. Boiling also helps to cook the wings more evenly, which prevents some from burning while others are undercooked. Additionally, pre-boiling can help reduce the amount of time needed when frying in order to get a fully cooked result. This technique is often used in Asian cooking, where boiled chicken wings are then deep-fried until crisp on the outside. Seasonings or sauces such as teriyaki or honey garlic are often added during this step for extra flavor. If you choose to boil the wings before frying, aim for an internal temperature of around 160°F (71°C) before transferring them into hot oil or butter. This will ensure that they're cooked through before you add any additional seasonings or sauces.
