Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings
Description
The recipe prepares chicken wings with tips removed, evenly seasoned with lemon pepper, and optionally grated fresh lemon zest for enhanced citrus aroma. Wings are arranged in a single layer in an air fryer basket sprayed with cooking oil to prevent sticking.
The cooking process involves an initial 10-minute fry at 380°F followed by flipping the wings for an additional 10 minutes until golden brown and crisp. This method delivers well-cooked wings that maintain juiciness inside with a textured, seasoned crust outside.
This preparation fits as an appetizer, snack, or part of a larger meal, offering a flavorful alternative to traditional fried wings using less oil and simpler cleanup.
