Chicken Wings Shawarma
Prep 10 min Cook 50 min Serves 6 Source

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds (1.5k) chicken wings
  • 1-3 teaspoons (5-15ml) lemon juice ((I used 1 teaspoon))
  • 2-3 cloves garlic, (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon (2-3g) white pepper
  • 1 teaspoon (2g) nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon teaspoon (2g) smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon (1g) dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon (2-3g) coriander
  • ¼ teaspoon (.5g) cayenne pepper ((adjust for heat tolerance))
  • ½ cup (113g) yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon (3-4g) bouillon powder (or ¾ teaspoon salt)
  • salt (to taste)

Steps

  1. 1

    Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk the spices: lemon juice, garlic, paprika, nutmeg, thyme, cayenne pepper, coriander, bouillon, and yogurt. Adjust salt to taste.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken wings and marinade in a ziplock bag or enclosed storage and marinate for an hour (preferably overnight in the fridge).

  3. 3

    Preheat oven to 425℉ (220℃). Line a baking pan with foil, top with a wire rack, and arrange the chicken wings in a single layer. While they're baking, the oil will drip into the bottom of the pan for crispier wings.

  4. 4

    Bake wings at 425℉ (220℃) until cooked through and skin is crispy, 40-45 minutes. Turn wings over halfway through, roughly 20 minutes.

  5. 5

    Remove from the oven and serve while still hot with your favorite chicken wing sauce, low-fat ranch dressing, or tzatziki. Enjoy!
