Ingredients

🍗 4 pounds of chicken wings
🧂 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
🌶️ 1 tablespoon paprika
🌶️ 1 teaspoon chili powder
🍋 1 tablespoon lemon pepper
🥄 2 tablespoons baking powder
🫒 1 tablespoon olive oil

🧈 1 stick unsalted butter
🍋 2 tablespoons lemon pepper
🧄 1 teaspoon garlic powder
🍋 Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions

1- Prepare the Wings:

• Start by thoroughly washing 4 pounds of chicken wings, then pat them dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely.

2- Season the Wings:

• In a large bowl, combine the wings with seasoned salt, paprika, chili powder, lemon pepper, baking powder, and olive oil. Mix well until each piece is evenly coated.

3- Air Fry the Wings:

• Preheat your air fryer to 390°F (200°C). Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket, ensuring they aren’t overcrowded to allow even cooking.
• Cook for 20 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through the cooking time, until they are golden brown and cooked through.

4- Prepare the Wing Sauce:

• In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Stir in lemon pepper, garlic powder, and fresh lemon juice. Mix until fully combined and heated through.

5- Toss and Serve:

• Once the wings are air-fried to crispy perfection, toss them in a large bowl with the prepared wing sauce until evenly coated.
• Serve immediately and enjoy the crispy, zesty flavors of lemon pepper wings.
