Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons tahini sesame paste
  • 1 tablespoon water

  • Kosher salt
  • 2 pieces leftover fried chicken (preferably drumsticks or thighs)

Directions
  1. In a medium bowl, add the lemon juice and garlic and set aside for 10 minutes. Mix in the tahini, then stir in the water and cumin. Season to taste with salt.
