Spicy and full of flavor. These chicken lollipops are lip-smacking!

Coated with a luscious batter with garlic and ginger paste, chicken wings are fried perfectly.

Chicken lollipop, me and my hubby’s favorite appetizer to order whenever we drop by any restaurant. I make it occasionally at home because I don’t find chicken lollipop often in the frozen section.
