My family can't get enough of these wings! The sauce will have you licking your fingers and when they are all gone you will be begging for more. On the rare occasion we have leftovers, I enjoy them cold. Warning: This will make a mess of your oven, so you might want to hold off on cleaning your oven if you plan on making these wings.

How To Make crispy lemon garlic chicken wings~robynne

  • 1
    Dry chicken wings well with paper towels.
  • 2
    Combine spices for the dry rub.
  • 3
    Toss wings with olive oil and sprinkle with rub. Set wings on a platter and refrigerate uncovered for 2 hours. This will make for crispier skin.
  • 4
    Heat over to 450 F degrees and arrange wings on a broiler pan or non-stick baking sheets. Roast for 25-30 minutes.
  • 5
    Turn wings over and return to oven for an additional 15 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 160 F degrees. The wings should be brown and crispy on both sides. Remove from oven.
  • 6
    Make the butter sauce by warming melted butter in a small saucepan on low heat. Add garlic and cook for about 45 seconds.
  • 7
    Whisk in lemon juice and remove from heat.
  • 8
    Brush wings on both sides with sauce and return to oven for 5 to 10* minutes. *Note: Please use your judgment, as my husband likes his food on the brown side. As long as your chicken is cooked thoroughly, you can serve the wings immediately after coating the chicken with the sauce or put them back in for additional time.
