Ingredients

  • 4.5-5 lb Chicken wings
  • 1 cup All Purpose Flour
  • 2/3-3/4 cup Salted Butter Melted
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Pepper Seasoning Sea
  • 1 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1 tsp Kosher Salt

Instructions

  • Step 1: Getting the Flour Mix Ready

    I kick things off by combining a cup of all-purpose flour with a teaspoon each of black pepper and kosher salt. It forms the foundation for the ultimate crispy wings.

  • Step 2: Coating Those Wings

    Take your chicken wings and generously coat them with the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess flour to achieve that perfect crispy texture.

  • Step 3: Deep Frying Magic

    To reach the ideal golden brown, deep fry the wings at 350°F for 5-7 minutes. The result? A color that promises a burst of flavor in every bite.

  • Step 4: Oven Finale

    Give the wings an extra crispiness by transferring them to the oven at 350°F for an additional 10 minutes. It's the finishing touch for perfection

  • Step 5: Crafting the AB Lemon Pepper Sauce

    In a bowl, I blend melted salted butter, fresh lemon juice, and my special homemade lemon pepper seasoning. It's a sauce that turns these wings into a culinary masterpiece.

  • Step 6: Tossing and Zesting Magic

    While the wings are still hot, I toss them generously in the lemon pepper sauce. A final touch? Zesting fresh lemon over the wings for that extra burst of citrusy goodness.
