Tandoori Wings

The best way to eat all things tandoori is to have a tandoor oven. But since we don’t have one of those we are going to be an air fryer version. If you don’t like air fryers you can always fry them or make them in the oven.

A’int no thang but a chicken wang.

These make for a slightly involved lunch or a super easy dinner. Pair it with some potato wedges or pilaf even.
