Lemon Pepper Wings

I love the taste of lemon pepper…

I even use it in my green beans with

A dash of salt, fresh squeezed lemon

And a bit of evoo...below is a must try

Recipe!

This recipe yields 12 wings

So adjust accordingly…

2lbs chicken wings

2T canola oil

1T honey

3 ½ tsp lemon pepper seasoning, divided

2T unsalted butter

2T freshly squeezed lemons

1/4tsp black pepper

Directions…

Place one rack in the center of the oven and one in the upper third. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a

large baking sheet with aluminum foil.

coat the rack with nonstick spray.

Set a large mixing bowl on the counter.

Top the wings with the canola oil, honey, and

2 teaspoons lemon pepper seasoning.

Stir to coat, then arrange the wings in a single layer

on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 12 to 18 minutes,

until the wings are cooked through.

The skin will start to shrink away from the

ends of the bones, and the wing juices will

clear when pieced with a fork.

Move the pan to the upper third of the oven

and turn the oven to broil. Broil for 2 to 3 minutes,

the wings darken and crisp a bit more.

Do not walk away to make sure the wings do not burn.

While the wings bake, in a small, microwave-safe bowl,

melt the butter. Add the wings to a large bowl,

then top with the melted butter, lemon juice,

black pepper, and remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons lemon pepper.

Stir to coat. Transfer the wings to a serving plate and sprinkle with chopped green onions. Enjoy the heat.

Myself I would serve with the lemon green beans I mentioned

And some sliced baked garlic sweet potatoes.

I absolutely love these! I love decorating for Halloween, I have to say it is my favorite holiday. I don't think you can have enough decorations up! So when I found this DIY project I just had to share! DIY Cheesecloth Ghosts You can find styrofoam mannequin heads at wig shots.
