Oven Baked Lemon Pepper Wings! (Keto Friendly!)
I live in Atlanta, so you know I LOVE eating Lemon Pepper Wings! I’ve recently made some lifestyle changes when it comes to the food I eat, which meant I had to end my frequent trips to the local wing spot and find a healthier alternative which meant baked wings. Baking wings in Avocado Oil which has a heat point of 520 degrees makes it the perfect oil to get a crispy wing the same way you would when you fry them! I was gifted michelin star grade Plant-Based Butter from the company ForA Foods and utilized the butter to make my delicious lemon pepper wing recipe. Check out the recipe details below!
Oven Baked Lemon Pepper Wings Recipe:
Preparation Time: 10 minutes or less
Cook Time: 50-60 Minutes
Plating Time: 10 Minutes or less
What you’ll need:
2 lbs Chicken Wings
1/4 cup Avocado Oil
1/4 cup ForA Plant-Butter (or another Plant Based Butter alternative)
Lemon Pepper Seasoning (Sprinkle at your desired level, I like seasoning and flavor so I’m heavy on the seasoning and can’t tell you the measurement lol!)
Salt (Sea Salt is ALWAYS Recommended)
Red Pepper Flakes
Smoked Paprika
1 lemon
Large Bowl (for chicken)
Silicone Baster
Non-Stick Baking/Cooling Rack
13x18 Half Sheet Baking Pan
Ranch Dressing for Sauce Optional
Instructions:
Gather your ingredients and preheat your Oven to 400.
Grab your bowl, add the Avocado Oil, add light salt and lemon pepper seasoning, and toss the wings together!
Put your wings on a wire baking rack that’s positioned on top of your half sheet baking pan. Cook your wings for around 50-60 minutes or until your wings are golden and crispy!
Prepare Lemon Pepper Butter Seasoning. Add the melted butter, seasoning, salt, and lightly squeeze lemon juice into the butter seasoning for added lemon flavor. Stir the mixture and brush the seasoning over your wings using a silicone baster then lightly sprinkle lemon pepper seasoning on top of the plated wings. For optimal use of the butter, brush the seasoning over your wings while plated on a serving tray.
Eat and enjoy!
