Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 tablespoons lemon pepper seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 0 olive oil spray
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top of it.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, lemon pepper seasoning, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and lemon zest.
Step 3
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove any moisture. This will help them become crispy.
Step 4
Add the chicken wings to the large bowl with the seasoning mix. Toss the wings until they are evenly coated with the seasoning mix.
Step 5
Arrange the wings on the prepared wire rack in a single layer, making sure they do not touch each other.
Step 6
Lightly spray the wings with olive oil spray to help them crisp up while baking.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
Step 8
After 25 minutes, carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and flip the wings over for even cooking.
Step 9
Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 10
Once done, remove from the oven and let the wings rest for a few minutes before serving.
Step 11
Serve the crispy lemon pepper wings with your favorite dipping sauce and enjoy!
