Basic Chicken Lollipops Recipes

CHICKEN LOLLIPOP RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Add all the marinade ingredients to a bowl and mix until fully combined, set aside.
• Slice a full-size chicken wing into three parts along the joints. Discard the wing-tip (or you can save them for making a chicken stock).
• For the drummet (the upper, meaty, one-bone part of the wing), cut along the circumference of the thin end so that the bone and the meat are no longer connected. Then push down the meat so the drummet becomes a lollipop.
• For the winglet (the middle, two-bone part of the wing), separate where the two bones join, and also cut along the circumferences of both ends, so the bone and the meat are no longer connected. Take out the thinner bone, and push down the meat into one end of the thinner bone.
• Place the prepared chicken lollipops in the marinade. Stir and cover. Marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
• Mix all batter ingredients until smooth without lumps.
• Dip the meat end of the chicken lollipops into the batter.
• In a medium-sized pot, heat the oil to 170˚C (340˚F). Deep fry the chicken for 5 minutes or until the batter becomes golden brown and the chicken is cooked throughout.
• Enjoy!

CHICKEN LOLLIPOPS | TRAEGER GRILLS

Steps:

• Using a sharp knife or a pair of kitchen shears, cut through the skin and tendons all the way around a drumstick just below the knuckle. Push the meat down to the large end and cut or pull the remaining skin and cartilage off the knuckle. Remove the small bone against the leg and trim away any remaining tendons. Repeat with the remaining drumsticks.
• Season the chicken with Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub. Wrap the bones of the drumsticks with small pieces of aluminum foil to keep them from burning. Refrigerate the chicken for 1 hour to allow the flavors of the rub to permeate the meat.
• When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 180°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavor, use Super Smoke, if available.
• Place the chicken lollipops directly on the grill grates. Close the and smoke for 30 minutes.
• Remove the chicken from the grill and increase the Traeger temperature to 350°F. Preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes. Add the butter to a baking dish or aluminum roasting pan and place on the grill to melt while it comes to temperature.
• Add the chicken lollipops to the pan with the melted butter and turn to coat, then arrange so the bones stick up straight. Close the lid and cook until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, warm the Traeger BBQ Sauce in a small saucepan on the stove over low heat. Add a few squirts of Louisiana Hot Sauce, if desired. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the drumsticks, but not gluey; thin with a bit of the melted butter if needed. Cover to keep warm until ready to use.
• Dip or brush the lollipops in the BBQ sauce until completely coated.
• Increase the Traeger temperature to 450°F. Place the chicken directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and cook until the internal temperature reaches 175°F, the sauce has caramelized, and the skin is starting to crisp, about 10 minutes more. Keep an eye on the lollipops to make sure that the glaze doesn't burn. Enjoy!

BASIC CHICKEN LOLLIPOPS

Steps:

• 1. Remove and discard wingtip(or save for stock. Cut wing into 2 pieces. Starting with the drumstick like piece cut around the the tip(where the joint was) with a sharp knife to separate the meat from the bone and then scrape and push the meat to the tip with the knife and then finally you should be able to just pull/push the meat to the end to form a lollipop shape. Do the same with the flat piece but you will need to remove the smaller bone also. ( I believe there are youtube videos available showing how to do this if it seems confusing.
• 2. Now that you have made all the pieces into lollipops; sprinkle them with the salt and pepper and let stand for 15 minutes.
• 3. Meanwhile whisk the eggs and combine with the flour to make a batter.
• 4. Dip chicken lollipops(just the meat part) into the batter and then into the bread crumbs and gently drop into your heated oil to fry for about 12-15 minutes until done( they should be at least 165/juices should run clear).
• 5. Enjoy just as they are or with your favorite dipping sauce.

CHICKEN LOLLIPOPS

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or other large heavy pot, heat 4 inches oil to 375 degrees F over medium-high heat.
• Using kitchen shears or a knife, separate the wings at the joint. Reserve the drumette, saving the wing for homemade chicken stock, if desired. Stand a drumette on its wide end and, holding the narrow bone at the top, use a paring knife to push and scrape the skin and meat downward to expose the bone and make a plump "lollipop" of chicken at the bottom. Repeat with the remaining drumettes.
• Place the honey and chopped chipotles in a bowl and whisk together.
• Fry the "lollipops" in batches until crispy and golden brown, about 6 minutes, allowing the oil to come back up to temperature in between batches. Drain on a paper towel.
• Place the fried "lollipops" on a platter, bone up, and drizzle the honey-chipotle sauce over the top. Sprinkle with sea salt and serve with lime wedges.
