🔥 What is Chicken Lap?

Chicken Lap refers to the juicy thigh and drumstick portion of the chicken. It’s a favorite across many African kitchens due to its perfect balance of meat and fat, which makes it incredibly flavorful. Seasoned with aromatic spices and slow-cooked or grilled, Chicken Lap is a comfort food that never disappoints.

At Lovelyn Kitchen in Bolingbrook, our Chicken Lap is seasoned with traditional herbs and spices, flame-grilled or oven-baked to lock in maximum flavor.

🧂 Ingredients for Perfect Chicken Lap

• 1 tsp paprika

• 1 tsp thyme

👨🏽‍🍳 How to Make Chicken Lap at Home

1. Marinate the Chicken
   Clean and pat dry the chicken laps. In a bowl, combine oil, garlic powder, paprika, thyme, curry, salt, and pepper. Rub the seasoning generously over the chicken. For deeper flavor, marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight in the fridge.

2. Grill or Bake
   Preheat your grill or oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the chicken laps on a baking rack or tray and cook for 35–45 minutes, turning occasionally. Grill until golden brown and internal temp reaches 165°F (74°C).

3. Serve Hot
   Serve with jollof rice, fried rice, plantains, or any of your favorite African sides.
