  2. 2Slice right between the joint of the chicken wings.
  3. 3Season the chicken thoroughly with seasoning, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and Tony's seasoning.

  7. 7Season the flour with the same seasonings as the chicken, but double the amount.
  8. 8Drop the chicken into the seasoned flour in the Ziploc bag.
  9. 9Zip the bag up, leaving air inside, and shake it to coat the chicken.
  10. 10Take the chicken out of the bag and let it rest.
  11. 11Test the oil temperature; it should be at 350 degrees.
  12. 12Drop all the chicken flats into the hot oil first, as they are roughly the same size for even cooking.
  13. 13Fry the chicken for about 10 minutes until done and golden brown.
  14. 14Remove the fried chicken from the oil and place it on a wired rack.
  15. 15If doing a second batch, get the oil temperature back up to about 350 degrees before dropping the drumettes.
