We love Malaysian food. The taste is so close to Indian and yet has its own flavors. I have tried making different cuisines and so far, after Indian and Mughlai, Malaysian is my all time favorite.
Chicken satay is a great kebab recipe, specially with kids. The marination is simple and does not have to be kept for long either. The kebabs come out spicy so, if you like them to be mild, you could either use less of the spice or add a little cream, roughly 1/4 cup for 1 lb of chicken. The flavor would definitely change and might not taste as authentic as the real Malaysian satay but it would still be nice and would be the closest you can get to the dish. I actually prefer adding less spice.
This is great for calorie conscious and diet needs. Its high in protein and does not require any flour coating so its quiet healthy.
This is great for tea or coffee parties, play dates, quick bite and unannounced guests. The level is great for beginners and can easily be made for those pot lucks as well.
This is second kind of Chicken Lollipop that I invented and all because my older one came in asking that he needs sauce “dripping” on the lollipops. I have mentioned it numerous times in my other food stories of how well demanding my boys are. So, after thinking out in detail about how I can make them extra juicy, I came up with this recipe.
It requires a little marination and further its cooked in little oil, unlike other chicken lollipop recipes, where they are deep fried, so its kind of a guiltless pleasure that lets you over indulge. Further, more sauces are mixed in and you let it cook further in the sauces.
This recipe is super saucy and the chicken lollipops are not too crunchy but soft and juicy.
I have never met a kid or a person who enjoys chicken and does not go crazy over chicken lollipops. I, myself go overboard and hate to admit, but I go overboard when it comes to these little round juicy, crunchy creeps. After all, no one eats one chicken lollipop, NO, NEVER. In my books, if you don’t indulge and go crazy with them, you are committing a sin, BIG TIME.
This dish is meant to be enjoyed with friends/family and made enough so, everyone can enjoy to the max. I am posting a video as well that teaches you the easiest way to make lollipops out of your wings. The video isn’t just easy to follow but its the safest way to not cut your fingers. So, if you wish to try making these, please do watch the video and follow.
So, coming back to the lollipops. My boys love chicken wings and I would serve those on play dates/ game nights/ get together. The chicken wings I made gained so much popularity between our friends that I believe a lot of people went out of their way to be at our every party only to devour the juicy wings…LOLzzz. So once in Bangalore, my boys tried chicken lollipops and the dish just earned themselves a new fan. That’s when the mommy had to try her skills to make a new dish. Now, I make 4 different flavors of chicken lollipop but I still have not tried making something close to what my boys had tried but, I came up with my own recipes and they all are lip smacking delicious.
So if you are a fan of chicken lollipops like us, this recipe is a must try. Just like other recipes with chicken wings these will surely impress you and your loved ones.
