Need a Lemon-Pepper Chicken Wing Recipe

[TripleB]

Doing wings on my Weber kettle with the Vortex tonight and need a lemon-pepper recipe.

Thanks in advance.

Its been awhile since I've done lemon pepper chicken anything. When I do I use a commercial lemon pepper seasoning, sprinkle it on, and let the chicken set for an hour or so to dry brine a little.

I'm watching this post to see other ideas.

Do you like Chick-Fil-A?

Yes

They marinate their chicken breast in dill pickle juice before breading and frying.

Ingredients:

chicken wing
whole lemon
pepper (bell, poblano, etc)

There you have it!

Joking aside, when I use lemon pepper seasoning (it pairs well with chicken) I just use a commercial blend. Maybe make a simple glaze of fresh squeezed lemon juice, a bit of sugar syrup and a bit of a corn starch slurry to thicken it. In such a glaze the fresh squeezed lemon juice is the star so go light on the sugar syrup.

Consider adding some citric acid in the seasoning. I did Joshua Weissman's recipe (https://www.joshuaweissman.com/post/...ome-but-better) and it does help the lemon flavor not get lost.

(It is a bit of work....I'm not sure I would do the entire from-scratch dehydrated lemons again, but the citric acid did help.)

(Edit: I fail at reading.....didn't see the 'tonight' in your post.)

I keep it simple. I oil the wings and put a rub of my choice one. If I were doing lemon pepper wings it would be Suggle Busters’ Lemon Pepper Garlic.

I like lemon pepper chicken and would like to really increase the amount of rub that I use. Unfortunately all the store bought rubs that I have purchased are very high in salt content. Would like to find a zero or near rub. I should investigate making my own. Lemon chicken is fantastic.

Kinders, usually available at Sam's Club, makes a decent salt free LP seasoning.

I use lemon pepper seasoning, add cayenne and lemon zest.

Smoke on vortex like normal

Couldn't get the picture to upload yesterday.

This is the seasoning I start with. It's pretty good

Thanks for looking.
