Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons lemon zest
- 4 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt, to taste
Instructions
- Rinse and dry the chicken wings thoroughly, patting them with paper towels to ensure maximum crispiness.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine melted butter, lemon zest, lemon juice, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. Mix well to create a flavorful marinade.
- Toss the wings in the marinade until fully coated. Let them marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Arrange the wings on a prepared baking sheet or in the air fryer basket. Bake for 40-45 minutes or air fry at 380°F until golden brown and crispy, turning them halfway through cooking.
- Remove the wings from the heat and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra crispiness, consider dusting the wings with baking powder before cooking. You can also add cayenne pepper for a spicy kick.
