Ingredients

• 2 pounds chicken wings
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon zest
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C) and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.

Step 2

Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. This will help them become crispy when baked.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Mix well to combine.

Step 4

Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss them until they are thoroughly coated with the spice mixture.

Step 5

Arrange the wings on the wire rack, ensuring they are not touching each other. This will allow air to circulate and make them crispy.

Step 6

Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Step 7

After 30 minutes, increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) and continue baking for an additional 20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

While the wings are baking, in a small mixing bowl, combine the lemon zest and olive oil.

Step 9

Once the wings are done baking, remove them from the oven and transfer them to a large mixing bowl.

Step 10

Drizzle the lemon and olive oil mixture over the crispy wings. Toss the wings to ensure they are evenly coated.

Step 11

Serve the Keto Crispy Lemon Pepper Wings hot with your choice of keto-friendly dipping sauce.
