Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds bone-in chicken wings I used both wings and drumsticks
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
lemon pepper sauce
  • 6 tablespoons butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • Juice from ½ lemon about 3 tablespoons
  • 2 teaspoons honey

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a cooling rack on top of the foil.
  2. Arrange chicken wings in a single layer (not touching) and brush with olive oil on both sides. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
  3. Bake for 25-35 minutes until crispy.
  4. Whisk together butter, honey, cracked black pepper, and lemon juice. Brush onto chicken wings. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • This recipe as written makes 1.5 pounds chicken wings - for me this was about 16 wings. At 2-4 wings each, this would serve 4-6 people as an appetizer.
