About Tandoori Chicken Lollipops

Chicken Lollipops is an irresistible dish to refrain from when dining out. No logic or reasoning can stop you from ravishing this recipe. So many variations of this Chicken Lollipops recipe are seen worldwide. Here I have chosen to keep it the Desi Tandoori style.

Chicken lollipops are mostly made from the wings portion where the flesh is pushed down to one end to make it resemble a lollipop.

Chicken lollipops have a crispy texture and are tender inside because of the marination. Nowadays frenched chicken lollipops are available. Mix spices of your choice for marination , add some corn flour and fry.

This recipe also happens to be one of the favourite recipes of my mother. So today I dedicate this recipe to my mom.
