Ingredients
Method
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) with a wire rack set inside a foil-lined baking sheet. Toss the 2 lbs chicken wings with the 1 tbsp baking powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp onion powder, and 1 tsp kosher salt, then spread in a single layer on the rack.
- Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 45 minutes, flipping once at the 25-minute mark, until the skin is deep golden and blistered.
- While the wings finish baking, melt the 4 tbsp unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, 1 tbsp lemon zest, 2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper, 1 tsp lemon pepper seasoning, and 1/2 tsp kosher salt. Stir and let bubble for 2 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Transfer the hot wings to a large bowl, pour the lemon pepper glaze over them, and toss for about 30 seconds until every wing is fully coated.
- Pile the wings onto a serving platter, pour any remaining glaze from the bowl over the top, and scatter the 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley and a few lemon slices over everything before serving.
Notes
These wings benefit from being as dry as possible before they go into the oven, so if you have an extra hour, leave them uncovered on the rack in the fridge after coating. The glaze comes together quickly, so start it in the last 5 minutes of bake time so it is warm and ready the moment the wings come out.
