Tandoori Chicken Wings

Step 1

If not already cut, remove the tips of chicken wings and split at the joint. Pat dry with paper towels and trim off any excess loose fat using kitchen shears.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the yogurt, minced ginger, garlic, lime juice, salt and all the dry spices to make the marinade.

Step 3

Add the wings and toss till well coated. Refrigerate 1 to 4 hours (longer the better).

Step 4

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place the wings, skin side up. Bake in a pre-heated oven at 425°F for 30 minutes.Remove from the oven and brush the wings lightly with oil. Switch the oven to 'Broil'. Broil them in the oven, 1-2 minutes on each side, until the skin is crisp and slightly blistered.

Step 5

Preheat the air fryer for 2 minutes at 375°F. Place the chicken wings in a single layer. Cook for 22 to 25 minutes, removing the basket and shaking it twice in between, about every 8 minutes. Now increase the heat to 400°F and cook for 2 to 4 minutes, until the skin is crispy and golden brown. Note: cooking time may vary with different air fryers

Step 6

Garnish with chopped cilantro and fresh lime juice. Serve hot with cilantro Jalapeno sauce.
