Instructions
- Heat the oven to 450°F. Pat dry the chicken wings with a paper towel if they are moist.
- Add the potato starch, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to the chicken wings. Toss to coat the chicken wings.
- Lightly spray some oil onto the parchment-lined sheet pan, then transfer the chicken wings to the sheet pan in a single layer. Spray the tops of the chicken with some more oil.
- Decrease the oven temperature to 425°F and bake the chicken wings for 35 to 40 minutes, flipping them at the halfway mark and spraying a bit more oil on the tops.
- Meanwhile, in a small saucepan on the stovetop, add the honey, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, butter, salt, and pepper. Stir and simmer the sauce for 3 to 5 minutes until well combined. Set aside a small portion to dip the wings in, if desired.
- Once the wings are done, transfer them to a bowl and toss them to coat with the honey lemon pepper sauce.
