Wash chicken wings with lime, salt, cold water, and vinegar, rinsing twice.

Cut whole chicken wings into wing-dings if desired.

Heat oil in a pan to 350°F (175°C).

Test oil readiness by adding a bit of flour; if it sizzles, the oil is ready.

Season chicken wings with black pepper, garlic powder, and salt, mixing well.

Let the seasoned wings rest for 10 minutes to allow flavors to soak in.

Let the seasoned wings sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes before cooking.

Coat the wings in all-purpose flour, ensuring they are well coated, and let them sit for 10 minutes.

Carefully place wings into the hot oil, avoiding splashes, and fry in batches without overcrowding the pan.

Fry wings at medium-high heat for about 5-7 minutes without disturbing them to form a crispy coating.

After 10 minutes, gently move the wings around to ensure they are not sticking together.

Continue frying until wings are golden brown and crispy, checking for doneness.

Remove wings from oil and drain on paper towels.
