Baked Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings

 

1 ½ pounds bone-in chicken wings – I used both wings and drumsticks

3 T. olive oil

salt and pepper to taste

 

6 T. butter – melted

½ tsp. cracked black pepper

juice from ½ lemon – about 3 tablespoons

2 tsp. honey

 

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil and place a cooling rack on top of the foil. Arrange chicken wings in a single layer (not touching) and brush with olive oil on both sides. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Bake for 25-35 minutes until crispy. Whisk together butter, honey, cracked black pepper, and lemon juice. Brush onto chicken wings. Serve immediately.
