After trying many different recipes for chicken wings, I eventually came up with my own marinade. You can use skinless wings if you prefer, but I find they taste best with the skin on.
Wash and pat dry 1 KG skin-on wings. Use these ingredients to marinate the 1 KG wings:
- 1 teaspoon red pepper powder or paprika
- 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper or red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon tikka or tandoori masala
- 1 teaspoon chaat masala
- ¾ teaspoon garam masala
- 1 teaspoon white cumin powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or grated)
- ½ teaspoon ginger powder (or grated)
- 1 teaspoon carom seeds
- 4 tablespoon Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoon oil
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt to taste (about 1 teaspoon)
- You may also use some MSG/Ajinomoto or chicken powder
To prepare the marinade, mix the yogurt, oil, and lemon juice in a bowl. Add the dry ingredients and mix well.
Add the chicken wings to the marinade and toss until they are evenly coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
For the best results, grill or BBQ the chicken wings. You can also cook the wings in the oven or under the broiler. When the wings are halfway cooked, brush them on both sides with a mixture of oil and lemon juice.
