Extra Crispy Honey Lemon Pepper Wings (Oven Baked!)

Ingredients

• 4 lb chicken wings (about 18-20 wings, fresh or frozen and thawed)
• 1 1/2 tbsp baking powder (aluminum-free)
• 1/4 tsp paprika
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp onion powder
• 1/2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
• 3 tbsp honey
• 1 1/2 tsp lemon pepper seasoning
• 3/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 1/2 tsp lemon zest (fresh)
• 1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice (fresh)

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 450°F. Line two sheet pans with foil and spray lightly with non-stick spray.

2. 2

   If wings are sitting in juices, drain over the sink for several minutes. Then use paper towels to pat the chicken wings as dry as possible.

3. 3

   Toss wings into a large bowl, then add baking powder, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and lemon pepper seasoning.

4. 4

   Place wings on prepped sheet pans, leaving space in between each one. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until nicely golden and crispy on the outside.

5. 5

   While the wings are baking, combine the honey, lemon pepper seasoning, black pepper, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

6. 6

   When the wings are done, use tongs to gently pull them off the foil and place them in the bowl. Some might stick a bit - that’s normal. Just keep wiggling until they pull off.

7. 7

   Gently toss the wings with the sauce until all are covered. Serve immediately.
