Begin by sectioning the chicken wings into wingettes and drumettes, then set aside for later.

Turn on your fryer and let it preheat to about 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Pour 1/3 cup of heavy whipping cream into a bowl.

Add 2 tablespoons of ranch seasoning to the cream and shake until even.

Add the chicken to the bowl and stir until completely coated with the cream and seasoning.

Add 1 cup of self-rising flour and 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the bowl.

Give it a few shakes, then add the chicken and shake again until each piece is thoroughly covered.

Drop the wingettes and drumettes one by one into the fryer and cook for about 8 to 12 minutes.

Once done, add a little more ranch seasoning over the wings.
