For the chicken lollipops:
- 12 chicken lollipops (chicken wings drumettes)
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons tandoori masala
- 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder (for color)

INSTRUCTIONS :
Get the Chicken Lollipops ready by:
First, get the chicken lollipops ready. Cut a hole in the bottom of each chicken wing drumette with a sharp knife. Then, push the meat to the top to make a lollipop shape. Get rid of any extra fat or skin.
To make the marinade,
Put the tandoori masala, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, Kashmiri red chili powder, ground cumin, ground coriander, turmeric powder, and salt to taste in a big bowl. Mix the ingredients together. All of the ingredients should be well mixed together to make a smooth sauce.

Do not forget to cover all sides of the chicken lollipops with the marinate before adding them. Put a lid or plastic wrap on top of the bowl and put it in the fridge for at least two hours, or better yet, overnight, so the flavors can mix and the chicken can soak up the marinade.
Warm up the grill or oven:
Warm up your oven to 400°F (200°C) or get your grill ready to cook over medium-high heat.
How to Make the Chicken Lollipops:
In the oven, put the chicken lollipops that have been prepared on a baking sheet that has been lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Place the chicken in an oven that has already been heated up. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, turning it over once, or until it is fully cooked and the ends are slightly charred.
If you are using a grill, put the chicken lollipops that have been marinated right on the cook grates. Turn the chicken over every so often for 15 to 20 minutes, or until it’s cooked all the way through and has grill marks on all sides.
Add a garnish and serve:
Move the chicken lollipops to a serving plate after they are done cooking. Add a splash of color and freshness with lemon wedges and chopped cilantro leaves that have just been picked.
Serve the hot tandoori-style chicken lollipops with onion slices, mint sauce, and extra lemon wedges on the side to squeeze.
