Honey Lemon Pepper Wings Recipe

by

Preheat Air Fryer: Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C).
Air Fry the Wings: Arrange the wings in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through to ensure even cooking and crispiness.

Prepare the Honey Lemon Pepper Sauce:

Melt Butter: In a small saucepan, melt ¼ cup of butter over medium heat until fully melted.
Add Honey and Lemon: Stir in ⅓ cup honey, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tsp lemon zest. Whisk the mixture to combine and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Season with Pepper and Salt: Add 1 tsp cracked black pepper and a pinch of salt. Let the sauce cook for 2-3 minutes until it slightly thickens, then remove from heat. Stir occasionally to prevent the honey from burning.
Adjust to Taste: Taste the sauce and adjust the balance of sweetness, lemon, or pepper to your preference.

Toss Wings in the Sauce:

Transfer Wings to a Bowl: Once the wings are fully cooked, place them in a large mixing bowl.
Coat with Sauce: Pour the honey lemon pepper sauce over the wings. Toss well to ensure each wing is evenly coated in the sticky, flavorful sauce.
Serve Immediately: Transfer the sauced wings to a serving platter. Garnish with additional cracked pepper or a sprinkle of lemon zest, if desired. Enjoy while warm!
