Vadi
Spiced Bat Wings
4 teaspoons curry powder
2 teaspoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 pounds (20 to 24) chicken wing drummettes
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1 cup mango chutney
Place curry powder, ginger, cinnamon and salt
in large resealable plastic food storage bag.
Add chicken. Seal. Shake bag until chicken is evenly coated with spices.
Refrigerate for at least
3 hours or overnight. Heat oven to 350°F. Arrange chicken on aluminum foil-lined
15x10x1-inch jelly-roll pan. Drizzle with butter. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or
until chicken is golden
brown and juices run clear when pierced with a fork. Serve chicken with chutney.
Tip: Look for a variety of chutney flavors at the supermarket. Mango
chutney is the most classic,
but apple, peach and ginger chutneys would be equally delicious with the chicken.
Note: The sweet savory spice of curry adds a new flavor twist to a party
favorite.
Season the chicken ahead of time, then serve hot from the oven with a chutney
dip.
