Ingredients
For wings:
- 2 tbsps plain Greek yogurt
- 2 tbsps olive oil divided
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- ½ tsp minced fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp garam masala
- 1 tbsp sea salt
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp turmeric
- ¼ tsp cayenne
- 2 lbs chicken wings
For sauce:
- 2 cups fresh cilantro
- 1 cup Greek yogurt plain
- 1 garlic clove peeled
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- ½ tsp Kosher salt
- ½ tsp cumin
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Crank up your oven to a sizzling 400 F and line up a sheet pan with parchment paper like it’s the red carpet at the Oscars.
- Next, in a bowl of apt proportion, mix together 1 tablespoon olive oil along with everything else except the stars – the wings. Stir it all up..
- Wing time! Toss them into the bowl and make sure they get completely coated in the mixture.
- Lay them out on your prepared sheet pan in single file please.
- Give them another brush of olive oil to make them shine.
- Bake those bad boys until they’re cooked through and their skin is as crispy as autumn leaves – about 40 minutes or so.
- While the wings cook, make the Cilantro Yogurt Dipping Sauce.
- Toss the cilantro, into the belly of your food processor and give it a good whirl until it’s all chopped up.
- Next, add Greek yogurt, garlic, lime juice, salt and cumin to the party and blend until they’re all mingling nicely and smooth as a baby’s bottom.
- While your food processor is doing its thing slowly introduce olive oil to the mix. Let it work its magic to emulsify the sauce.
- Serve with the Tandoori-style wings.
- EAT IT!

Brian Gerard (Lewandowski) writes books critics call "aggressively adequate"—better than "aggressively terrible" but somehow more concerning. He once traded a MetroCard for a pitchfork on a subway platform and now uses it exclusively for dramatic pointing. He lives on a farm outside Charlottesville, Virginia with three disappointed potted plants, a judgmental pig named Trouble McFussbucket, and a wife who smiles politely at his life choices.

His first manuscript was composed entirely of punctuation marks and confused sketches. He's since published "Not Bukowski" (poems that don't rhyme) and "Slop and Swell from a Festering Mind" (essays so concerning that bookstores check on his wellbeing). He once spent three hours photographing a rare bird that turned out to be a plastic bag, and he's the only person banned from church bake sales for "weaponized brownies." Inheriting absurdism from Vonnegut and Adams, sprawling narratives from Irving, and weaponized failure from Moore, he writes about conflicted everymen struggling through supernatural chaos.
He has two new, offbeat novels waiting foran agent or a publisher: "Truth Tastes Like Pennies" and "Elliot Nessie."
He remains unconvinced that birds aren't surveillance drones.
