Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Add the olive oil, baking powder, lemon pepper seasoning, lemon zest and garlic powder to a large mixing bowl. Stir until well combined. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat.
  • Place the coated chicken wings in a single layer on the baking sheets. Bake for 40 - 45 minutes, or until cooked through, turning at the 25 minute mark.
  • Combine the melted butter and lemon juice in a large mixing bowl. Add the cooked chicken wings and toss gently to combine.
  • Garnish the chicken wings with the parsley before serving.

Notes

  • While not an essential ingredient, the baking powder helps give the wings a delicious crisp exterior texture.
  • Spoon any leftover lemon butter mixture over the chicken wings after plating for extra lemon flavor.
  • These chicken wings can also be cooked in the air fryer.
  • The chicken wings are cooked through when no longer pink inside, and the internal temperature of the wings has reached 165°F.
