Ingredients

4 servings

2 lbs chicken wings, split into flats and drumettes, tips removed
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp cornstarch
Chef's tip
For thickening, use about 1 1/3 times as much tapioca starch, stirred into a spoonful of cold water first; take the pan off the heat soon after it thickens.
1 tsp coarse kosher salt
2 tsp coarsely ground black pepper
2 tsp lemon zest (from about 2 lemons)
1 tbsp olive oil

For the lemon pepper finish

1 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
½ tsp coarsely ground black pepper
¼ tsp kosher salt

For serving

lemon wedges, for serving (optional)
fresh parsley, chopped, for serving (optional)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Set a wire rack inside a large baking sheet and lightly coat the rack with cooking spray or a thin film of oil.
2
Pat the wings thoroughly dry with paper towels — they should feel dry to the touch on all sides.
