Wings

Method

Preparation of Wings

  1. 1

    Clean the Chicken Wings

    Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Season the Wings

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, salt, and black pepper. Toss to ensure the wings are evenly coated.

Cooking the Wings

  1. 3

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). This high temperature will help to achieve crispy wings.

  2. 4

    Bake the Wings

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seasoned wings out in a single layer. Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Making the Lemon Pepper Sauce

  1. 5

    Melt the Butter

    In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter until it is completely liquid.

  2. 6

    Combine Ingredients

    Remove from heat and stir in lemon zest, lemon juice, garlic powder, dried oregano, and red pepper flakes until well combined.

Coating the Wings

  1. 7

    Toss the Wings in Sauce

    Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and place them in a large bowl. Pour the lemon pepper sauce over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.
