Chicken Wings turned into Chicken Lollipops is an Indo Chinese dish and very popular delicious appetizers for the kids. Segments of chicken wings marinated with spices and deep fried until crisp.
- Prepare the chicken wings according to video directions - Each wing can be made into 2 lollipops - One portion closer to the shoulder (Meatier portion) and another portion away from the shoulder (Remove the second small bone)- This is the less meaty portion and can be stuffed so the presentation looks nice.
- Prepare stuffing - Season chicken mince with paneer mixed in salt, chili powder, herbs, green chili and stuff the smaller lollipops with this mixture.
- Prepare batter-Mix in chili powder, salt to taste, cornflour to the beaten egg.
- Now we can season the prepared lollipops with few dashes with soy sauce, chili /garlic sauce, ginger/garlic paste and marinate for some time.
- Heat oil to medium heat (the lollipops need to cook completely inside hence, oil should not be too hot or else outside will brown too quickly leaving the insides uncooked).
- Roll the lollipops in the batter and coat it with breadcrumbs, drop gently into the oil and fry to a golden brown-not dark brown.The Lollipops can also be made without batter/breadcrumbs-Just fry them till golden brown.
- These lollipops can be served with a quick sauce made as below:heat oil in a pan, add cumin seeds and crushed ginger/garlic and saute it until fragrant. Add curry leaves, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, chopped green chillies ,coriander leaves along with little water and Ajinomoto-Toss in the fried lollipops and serve immediately.
