Now take a wingette, run a knife carefully at the bottom of the wingette and separate the bone joint, start to scrap off the meat in same way going upwards, while separate the thinner bone and discard it.
Scrap off all the meat in way described.
You can follow these steps & shape the lollipops but you can also ready & shaped lollipops that are easily available in the market.
Deseed & soak the kashmiri red chillies in hot water for 1-2 hours then add them into a mixer grinder jar with a splash of water & grind them into a fine paste, your red chilli paste is ready.
Set a pan over high flame & once it gets hot, add the oil & let the oil heat up as well.
Further add the red chilli paste, stir well & cook over medium high flame until the paste turns crumbly/coarse in texture & all the oil is released, this process will take 4-5 minutes.
Once cooked, add vinegar & stir well, your cooked chilli paste is ready, transfer it into a bowl & cool it down, you can also store it in an airtight container.
To marinate the chicken lollipops, add them into a bowl & then add salt, white pepper powder, ginger garlic green chilli paste & all the remaining ingredients of the marination then mix & coat the chicken well with the marinade, let the chicken marinate for 30 minutes.
Heat oil upto 160 C for frying, once marinated re-shape the lollipops then add them into the oil & fry over medium flame for 6-7 minutes, you only need to cook the chicken till its 80-90% done.
Further transfer the first fried chicken lollipops into a sieve & let them rest for 15 minutes.
Once rested you can fry them again at 180 C for 1-2 minutes & your delicious restaurant style chicken lollipops will be ready, you can serve them as it is with some schezwan sauce.
For drums of heaven, we will flash fry them after the sauce gets ready.

Further add hot water as required to make the sauce, then make a slurry by mixing the corn flour & water in a separate bowl to thicken the sauce & add it to the sauce while stirring it.
The sauce is ready, switch off the flame at this stage.
Flash fry the chicken lollipops at 180 C for 1-2 minutes & add them into the sauce along with some spring onion greens.
Then switch on the flame & just coat chicken lollipops with the sauce quickly & switch off the flame.
Your delicious restaurant style drums of heaven are ready.
