If you’ve ever been to Turkey, you’ll know that Turkish cuisine is full of bold flavors. One of their most popular dishes is called Turkish chicken wings. They’re usually served with a strong garlic sauce and served with french fries or rice. You can eat them as an appetizer, a main course, or a side.

Chicken wings! Universally loved by everyone, especially my kids! There are SO MANY chicken wings recipes and I am sure everyone has their favourite. I, for one, have several chicken wing recipes that I love!

I grew up eating and making South Asian foods. It was only when I came to England, I became more experimental with my food, and this is one of them.

The idea for these chicken wings came actually from Ertugrul, my all-time favourite Turkish drama. My son and daughter are currently obsessed with it. I think that’s kind of my fault! Anyways the food that is eaten in the show always looked so tasty and yummy that I thought I would try my hand at Turkish cuisine and from that this Turkish chicken wings recipe was born!

This marinade is inspired by Turkish cuisine and replicates the flavours found in Turkish food. Some of the ingredients may not be all that common in major supermarket chains, but you will definitely be able to find these in your local Middle Eastern store. Don’t miss out on these ingredients. They really do make all the difference!
