If you've had Wingstop Lemon Pepper Wings before and wanted to make them at home then look no further! This easy to follow yet tasty copycat style recipe is exactly what you're looking for.
INGREDIENTS
- 4.5 – 5 lbs Chicken Wings
- 1 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 2/3 – 3/4 cup Melted Salted Butter
- 1 tbsp AB’s Homemade Lemon Pepper Seasoning or Your Favorite Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 1 tsp Black Pepper
- 1 tsp Kosher Salt
Lemon Pepper Seasoning
- 5 large lemons
- ¼ cup (40 g) peppercorns
- 2 tsp (5 g) Kosher salt
- 3 tbsp Butter- Melted
DIRECTIONS
- Combine 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.
- Take your chicken wings and generously coat them with the seasoned flour. Shake off any excess flour to achieve that perfect crispy texture.
- 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.
- 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.
- In a bowl, I blend melted salted butter, and my special homemade lemon pepper seasoning. It’s a sauce that turns these wings into a culinary masterpiece.
- 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.
