Baked Lemon Pepper Wings

The lemon pepper chicken wings are seasoned with homemade lemon pepper seasoning and baked in the oven.

INGREDIENTS

1. 4 lbs Chicken wings, tips removed and patted dry
2. 4-5 Large lemons, zested
3. 3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
4. 1 tbsp Salt
5. 1 tsp Black peppercorns, crushed

INSTRUCTION

1. Position oven rack to center position and preheat oven to warm (lowest setting).  Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
2. To prepare the lemon-pepper seasoning, wash the lemons and pat dry. Remove zest from each lemon with a citrus zester.  A good zester will remove all the yellow and none of the bitter white layer.  Spread the zest in a thin layer on the parchment paper and place in the oven. After 20 minutes, remove pan from oven and shake to make sure zest is drying evenly. Return to oven until thoroughly dried, approximately 25-30 minutes.  Remove dried lemon zest from the oven and increase oven temperature to 425°F.
