Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 lbs chicken wings
  • 1/2 cup potato starch
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • Oil spray
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1 tsp ground pepper
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Heat the oven to 450°F.
  2. Pat dry the chicken wings with a paper towel.
  3. Add the potato starch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to the chicken wings. Toss to coat.
  4. Lightly spray oil onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  5. Place the chicken wings on the sheet pan in a single layer.
  6. Spray the tops of the chicken wings with a bit more oil.
  7. Decrease the oven temperature to 425°F and bake for 35 to 40 minutes.
  8. Flip the wings halfway through and spray a bit more oil on top.
  9. In a small saucepan on medium heat, add honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, butter, salt, and pepper. Stir and simmer the sauce for 3 to 5 minutes until well combined.
  10. Once the wings are done, transfer them to a bowl and toss to coat with the honey lemon pepper sauce.

Notes

For a healthier option, bake without oil spray and use sugar-free honey. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to three days.
