Chicken Wings

  • 3 pounds chicken wings separated into wings and drums
  • 2 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1 teaspoon paprika

Honey Lemon Pepper Sauce

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 450 °F and prepare a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place a wire rack on top of the aluminum foil lined baking sheet.
  • Pat dry chicken wings and toss in all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and paprika.
  • Place seasoned chicken wings on the rack lined baking sheet, in a single layer and keeping space between them.
  • Bake the seasoned chicken wings for 15 minutes and then reduce oven to 425 °F and continue to bake for 15 more minutes.
  • While the wings bake, prepare the honey lemon pepper sauce by whisking together the melted unsalted butter, honey, lemon juice, and lemon pepper seasoning.
  • Remove the baked chicken wings from the rack lined baking sheet and toss them in the honey lemon pepper sauce.
  • Place the sauced chicken wings back on the rack lined baking sheet and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  • Remove the Honey Lemon Pepper Wings from the oven and allow them to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Chicken wings are done when they reach an internal temperature of 160 °F. Refrigerated, in an airtight container, for up to 4 days. I do not recommend freezing or storing at room temperature for extensive amounts of time.
