Chicken lollipop is, essentially a frenched chicken wniglet, where in the meat is cut loose from the bone end and pushed down creating a lollipop appearance. Its one of the most ordered starter in the restaurants.
Restaurant Style chicken lollipop is the perfect finger food for parties.
It basically needs just an hour of marinating and you will get such tasty Chicken lollipop. You can copy the same recipe for vegetarian recipe and use paneer or sweet corn and enjoy your tasty veggies.
The very first time I made it at a dinner party I immediately had request for its recipe. The lollipops are succulent and very juicy even after frying them. I absolutely adore this snack as there is hardly any prep and the results are awesome. Tell me would you make these for your next party?
