Ingredients

Honey Lemon Pepper Sauce

  • 3 tbsp Butter melted and hot
  • 2 tsp Lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp Hot Sauce or our homemade buffalo sauce

  • 1/2 tbsp Baking Powder

  • 1/2 tbsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tbsp Onion Powder

Instructions

For the wings

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
  • Remove the chicken wing parts from the refrigerator and pat dry (removing as much moisture as possible helps to have a crispy wing skin)
  • Mix the black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and baking powder in a small dish or ramekin.
  • Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on the wings and toss the wings to coat.
  • Place wings on a parchment-paper lined baking sheet or a baking sheet with a cooling rack.
  • Cook the wings in the oven for 20-25 minutes per side (depends on how crispy you'd like them)

For the sauce

  • Add all ingredients to a small bowl.
  • Whisk to incorporate.

Finish the dish

  • Add the wings to a bowl.
  • Pour some of the sauce on top.
  • Toss to coat.
