Fried Stuffed Chicken Wings

These stuffed chicken wings are with flavourful Asian spice!  And it can be served as an interesting appetizer to WOW your guests. These wings are SO delicious, can be prepped well in advance, and are probably going to be something new for your party guest. They are fully juicy on the inside and they are an excellent way to enjoy wings WITHOUT the bone.

In fact, I have come across this recipe frequently in my cookbook, but I have not yet tried it. Consider the difficulty in deboning the wings making me give up on this recipe.

I resolved to accept the challenge this time. In fact, the remaining processes are significantly simpler after deboning the wings. Just a little bit of practice is required; the first one could be a challenge, but it will get easier as you go.

For this stuffed chicken wings, there are a lot of various filling options, such as glutinous rice, ham with carrots and celery, and shrimp. or the filling of your choice, to me it is just all up to you and how you like it to be.

I am using minced meat for my filling. It's also contains with glass noodles, mushrooms, fresh coriander roots and stems, and other spices. There are two methods to prepare these stuffed chicken wings: baking or frying. Of course, an air fryer can also be used for this recipe .

I'm starting with a full wing for this recipe, but I'll save the drumettes for another dish, for instance, turmeric chicken soup. The wing tip-attached portion looks much prettier and serves as a handle, making it much simpler to debone.

These fried stuffed chicken wings are incredibly delicious. To kick it up a level for the adults, I suggest using my homemade Sweet and Sour chilli sauce.

HOW TO DEBONE THE WINGS?

First, you must first run a knife around the joint to cut the ligament and tendon that joins the meat to the bone. As you start to push the meat down to expose the bones, hold it in place with your fingers tucked between the bones. You may go back and deal with the tendon by slicing it away with the knife if any portions of the meat were stuck. The bones will separate from the socket once you get to the stage when the joint has been fractured.
