HOW TO MAKE CHICKEN LOLLIPOP –

Chicken Marination and Frying

1.       Add all the marinade ingredients to a bowl and mix until fully combined, set aside.

2.       Slice a full-size chicken wing into three parts along the joints. Discard the wing-tip (or you can save them for making a chicken stock). I have used ready made from the store.

3.       For the drummet (the upper, meaty, one-bone part of the wing), cut along the circumference of the thin end so that the bone and the meat are no longer connected. Then push down the meat so the drummet becomes a lollipop.

4.       For the winglet (the middle, two-bone part of the wing), separate where the two bones join, and also cut along the circumferences of both ends, so the bone and the meat are no longer connected.

5.       Take out the thinner bone and push down the meat into one end of the thinner bone.

6.       Place the prepared chicken lollipops in the marinade. Stir and cover. Marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.

7.       Mix all batter ingredients until smooth without lumps.

8.       Dip the meat end of the chicken lollipops into the batter.

9.       In a medium-sized pot, heat the oil. then add the chicken drummet.

10.   Deep fry the chicken for 5 minutes or until the batter becomes golden brown and the chicken is cooked throughout.

Spicy Sauce Seasoning

1.       Take a frying pan, add oil, add chopped onions, grated ginger, finely chopped garlic and fry till raw smell goes off.

2.       Add red chilli paste (prepare by mixing 1 Tbsp water with 1/2 Tbsp red chilly powder), soya sauce, vinegar, salt, sugar and mix well.

3.       Add 1/3 cup water and bring to boil and cook till it thickens like a sauce.

4.       By now chicken would have baked, or cooked, remove from the oven or pan, respectively

5.       Add baked chicken to the above prepared sauce mix, Toss well so that chicken is completely coated with sauce.

6.       Keep it in simmer for 3-5 minutes for flavours to blend.

7.       Turn off the heat, garnish with coriander leaves and spring onions.
