How To Make The Best Lemon Pepper Wings

Begin by patting the chicken wings dry using paper towels.

Heat your oven to a toasty 425°F.

For those using an oven, combine the wings with flour and baking powder, and let them chill in the refrigerator for around 15 minutes.

In a separate bowl, mix the wings with olive oil, lemon pepper, lemon zest, and garlic.

Use foil to line a baking pan, placing a baking rack on top. To prevent sticking, give the rack a quick spray with cooking spray.

Place the wings on the rack. Allow them to bake for 20 minutes before flipping them over. Continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until you achieve the desired crispiness. For an extra crunch, broil each side for a minute.

Merge the melted butter with fresh lemon juice and drizzle it over the wings. Add a generous sprinkle of pepper, a pinch of salt, and if you like, garnish with fresh thyme. They’re now ready to be devoured!

Get your air fryer up and running by preheating it to 400°F.

Following the ingredient mix mentioned above (minus the flour and baking powder), prepare your wings.

Place the wings in the air fryer basket, ensuring they are in a single layer. Let them cook for 10 minutes.

Flip the wings and give them another 10-minute session or until they’ve crisped to perfection.

Toss the wings in a mixture of melted butter and lemon juice. Sprinkle generously with pepper, salt to your preference, and optionally, some fresh thyme. Serve while hot and savor every bite!
