Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 whole lemon
- 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 3 tablespoons avocado oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings, avocado oil, garlic powder, onion powder, and sea salt. Toss well to coat the wings evenly.
Step 3
Spread the seasoned wings out on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching each other.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the wings over and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
While the wings are baking, prepare the lemon pepper seasoning. Zest both lemons into a small bowl, then juice one of the lemons. Set aside the juice.
Step 6
Combine the lemon zest with the freshly ground black pepper, mixing well.
Step 7
Once the wings are cooked, remove from the oven and transfer to a large bowl. Drizzle with the reserved lemon juice and sprinkle the lemon pepper mixture over the top. Toss well to coat the wings.
Step 8
Finely chop the fresh parsley and sprinkle over the wings before serving.
