Herbed chicken wings and cheese - a twist to normal chicken !

Chicken wings and cheese 

Generally, I am tired of eating leg pieces of chicken. I went to the supermarket to pick chicken, and for a difference and I picked a pack of chicken wings. Well, generally chicken wings cannot be cooked to a curry or any other preparation. But, I thought ‘Let’s do justice to this pack of chicken wings’. And some innovative idea clicked my mind. I air fried the chicken pieces, sautéed with herbs and ultimately garnished with cheese and then microwaved. Trust me, when I kept the dish in front of my children, it took just two minutes to be depleted. Well, now I get repeated orders and chicken wings get some justice in my home. Let me share the recipe for some of my food lover friends, who feel that no part of a food item should go for a waste.

1.       2 packs of chicken wings
