Chicken lollipop is a Chinese and Indian dish made by scraping meat off a chicken wing bone to create a ball of meat at one end, leaving the bone exposed like a lollipop stick. It can be fried, baked, or marinated and served with a dipping sauce.
A chicken lollipop is a way to prepare a chicken wing, so all of the meat from one of the segments is in a ball at one end of the wing bone. The area of bone from which the chicken was scraped protrudes from the ball of meat like a lollipop stick and can be used as a handle for eating the dish, or it can simply be a decorative element for the final plating. The dish is a Chinese and Indian dish and can be eaten as a snack, as a side dish or as a main course. Chicken lollipop can be marinated, breaded and deep-fried, or baked without adding flavorings. It is traditionally served with a type of dipping sauce, such as a ginger-garlic soy sauce or a honey-mustard mixture.
The preparation of the chicken lollipop is what separates it from other chicken wing dishes. The chicken wing is first cut at each joint, creating three pieces of meat. The wing tip, which contains almost no meat, can be discarded. The remaining two segments can each be made into a chicken lollipop, though the center piece with two bones takes more time and skill.
The meat is carefully scraped off the bone with a knife, pushing it down to the end of the wing segment. With some pressure, the meat will gather at the bottom and leave the top of the bare bone uncovered and exposed. For the center wing segment, the smallest bone should be trimmed before pushing the flesh down. Once the meat for this section is at the bottom of the bone, some of it is flipped over to form a dense ball.
Some cooks scrape off the exposed bone of the chicken lollipop completely, giving it a much cleaner, more professional look. Other times, the leftover bits of meat, tendons, and tendons can be left on the bone to give it a more rustic look. If broiled, broiled, or broiled, the bone can be wrapped in aluminum foil to keep it from burning.
A chicken lollipop can be breaded and fried, or it can be roasted in the oven. It can also be placed in a marinade before being coated in flour and egg and then fried. The wings are usually served with a dipping sauce, such as an Asian-inspired soy sauce dip, a traditional honey mustard dip, or even an Indian curry with garam masala.
