Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lb chicken wings
- 2 tbsp fresh rosemary
- 3 garlic cloves
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp lemon zest
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp honey (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
In a small bowl, finely chop the fresh rosemary and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped rosemary, minced garlic, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and paprika. If you'd like a touch of sweetness, stir in the honey (optional).
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure they crisp up nicely while cooking. Add them to the mixing bowl with the marinade and toss thoroughly to coat the wings evenly.
Place the coated chicken wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, ensuring they are not touching to promote even cooking.
Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Then, carefully flip the wings and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crispy with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy!
