Ingredients

- Place the marinated chicken in a big zip lock bag and leave it overnight.
- Take the chicken wings out atleast 30-45 mins before cooking.
- These wings can be baked, air fried, or grilled.
- Preheat your oven at 500 F and place the wings in an aluminum tray in a single layer.
- Once the oven has been preheated, place the tray in the oven and cook it for approx 40-45 mins. Make sure you turn them half way through.
- When the chicken looks cooked then change the oven to broiler mode and broil it for a few mins on high so that the liquid dries up.
- If making in the air fryer, then air fry at 390F for upto 8-12 mins depending on the air fryer.

- Serve these fingerlicking wings at any party and they will definitely be show stopper.
Notes
- If you don't have Greek yogurt at home, you can strain the regular yogurt and then use it
- I use Kissan Tandoori Masala which is one of the best ones out there.
- Make sure the wings have been marinated overnight.
