LEMON PEPPER WINGS



Lemon Pepper Wings image

Yet another great variation on the ever-popular tailgating and sports-bar snack and very simple and easy to make. I have tried this with several brands of lemon pepper seasonings and found I actually liked the cheapest one the most. It was a tad twangier than the others and was more suited to my liking. I found it at my local food store in the seasoning section. I also tend to lean towards a lemon pepper seasoning that includes a white pepper and less black.

  • Generous Seasoning: Don't be shy with the lemon pepper seasoning. Coat the wings liberally to ensure maximum flavor.
  • Use a Wire Rack: Place the wings on a wire rack when baking to allow air to circulate and promote even cooking.
  • Monitor Cooking Time: Keep an eye on the wings while they bake. Overcooking can result in dry and tough meat.
  • Sauce Options: Experiment with different sauces to complement the lemon pepper flavor, such as ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing, or a spicy buffalo sauce.
  • Garnish for Presentation: Before serving, sprinkle some fresh lemon zest and chopped parsley on top of the wings for an attractive presentation.
