Chicken being the most commonly cooked non-vegetarian delicacy at home I was tired of preparing the usual gravy kind of dishes hence wanted to try something which would taste an appear like a deep fried one but with less calories.I'm a big fan of the Pizza Corner chicken wings which hubby dear would often buy me during our courtship days..once I turned out to be a calorie conscious lady outside food especially deep fried ones are a strict NO NO.I came up with the below recipe which requires very minimal preparation time,looks and tastes as yummy as the Pizza Corner chicken wings.I wanted to try this out with chicken lolly-pop pieces first and trust me it was a super hit at home.My FIL who is generally not in favour of tasting chicken dishes unless they are deep fried really appreciated and devoured it.I managed to cook some for my parents and friends too and they all relished every atom of it.MIL being a zero foodie enjoyed the chicken lolly-pops and was happy with effective usage of the convention microwave at home.
The recipe being a baked one with just a few droplets of oil lets you feast on them with no guilt of gluttony ..
