Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • to taste Fresh lemon juice (optional) For a more pronounced lemon flavor.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry using paper towels.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings, olive oil, lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss until evenly coated.
  4. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and spread the seasoned wings out in a single layer.
Cooking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for about 30-35 minutes, flipping them halfway through.
  2. Once crisp and golden brown, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serving
  1. Serve the wings warm with your favorite dipping sauces or enjoy them as they are.

Notes

For extra crispy wings, consider broiling them for the last 3-5 minutes of cooking. Ensure wings are fully dry before seasoning to improve crispiness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days, and reheat in the oven or air fryer for best results.
