Coleslaw

Chicken Wings in Yoghurt Marinade

 Chicken Wings Crumbed

Chicken, Mash & Coleslaw



This seemed like it was going to be fun.

But having to handle raw chicken wings, pulling at bone from joint and cutting each wing into three pieces made me sort of ill.  It was slimy and horrible.

Marinade/batter contained:  yoghurt, egg, flour, small portion semolina, paprika, chilli, oregano, thyme, salt, pepper & crushed garlic.  Refrigerated for a few hours.

The crumbing was done just before frying.  Crumb mixture contained commercial breadcrumbs and a little gram flour (chickpea flour).  Turned out nice and crunchy.

Frying was a nightmare.  The first three pieces were binned because the oil was too hot.  It took forever to get the oil to a reasonably  slow-cooking temperature, so that the chicken would cook through.  Very time consuming also, as I did an enormous batch.

Timing was wrong.  Potato mash went cold and had to be microwaved.  Kitchen looked like a disaster zone.  

Not a fun meal.  And I didn't get into eating this one because the memory of chopping raw chicken was a lasting deterrent to pigging out.

It was well received though.
