Chicken Nibblets

Chicken Nibblets

I am often left with chicken bits and scraps after I take out meat for mince. Sometimes I make chicken stock out of them. This time I had lots of chicken wings that had accumulated over the days. I decided to make a snack out of them and I decided to call them Chicken Nibblets. Because you can nibble on them while watching television. It is hot and spicy..an Indianised chicken wings recipe.
