Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 small onion, chopped
1 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced
2 -3 garlic cloves, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons lime juice (fresh is best)
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (low or full fat)
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
3 lbs chicken wings

Steps:

  • Put the onion, ginger, garlic, lime juice, yogurt, vegetable oil, cumin, coriander, salt, cayenne and turmeric in a blender and blend until smooth. Pour the mixture into a resealable plastic bag (or into a bowl) and put in the refrigerator. This can be done the night before. It lets the flavors blend together before the chicken even touches it.
  • About 8 hours or so before cooking, score each chicken wing at least twice each, about 1/4 inch deep, and then add them to the marinade. Close the bag and knead until the wings are evenly coated with the marinade. Refrigerate them for about 8 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the wings in one layer on a rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes. Make sure to turn them halfway through the cooking time. Bake until the chicken is cooked through and done.

TANDOORI CHICKEN WINGS

A tandoor clay oven grills and roasts at the same time, but you can get a similar effect by broiling. Chicken wings are ideal for this technique: The meat is protected by a garam masala-spiced yogurt marinade, and the wing tips get crisp. Glaze the wings with store-bought mango chutney after cooking. The versatile spice blend called garam masala is available at most supermarkets and at Kalustyan's.

Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup tomato paste
2 teaspoons garam masala
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon turmeric
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 teaspoons grated peeled fresh ginger (from a 1-inch piece)
2 teaspoons safflower oil, plus more for baking sheet
1 teaspoon coarse salt
8 chicken wings
1/2 cup mango chutney
1/2 tart green apple, such as Granny Smith, grated

Steps:

  • Combine 1 cup yogurt, tomato paste, spices, ginger, oil, and salt in a large bowl. Slit each chicken wing on the underside above and below the joints and add to yogurt mixture. Marinate at least 30 minutes and, refrigerated, up to 8 hours; if refrigerated, bring to room temperature before cooking.
  • Heat broiler with rack 8 inches from heating element. Rub oil on a rimmed baking sheet and add chicken wings in a single layer, with undersides facing up. Broil until golden and cooked through, 16 to 18 minutes total, flipping once halfway through. Remove from oven and brush with chutney. Stir apple into remaining cup yogurt and serve alongside wings, for dipping.

Tips
  • To make the best tandoori chicken wings, use fresh, high-quality chicken wings. Avoid using frozen wings, as they will not cook as evenly.
  • Make sure to marinate the chicken wings for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. This will help the chicken to absorb the flavors of the marinade and cook more evenly.
  • If you are using a charcoal grill, make sure that the coals are hot before you start cooking the chicken wings. This will help to prevent the chicken from sticking to the grill.
  • Cook the chicken wings over medium-high heat until they are cooked through. This will usually take about 10-12 minutes.
  • Serve the tandoori chicken wings immediately with your favorite dipping sauce. Some popular choices include raita, mint chutney, or tamarind sauce.
