If you do not have an air fryer, you can make the wings in the oven. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Follow all of the same instructions as far as seasoning and coating the wings in oil.
If possible, use a broiler pan to bake the wings on.
Spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray. Place the wings in one single layer on a pan. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes, flip them over, and bake an additional 10 minutes.
Then you will coat the wings in the hot honey lemon pepper sauce.
ARE THESE HOT HONEY LEMON PEPPER WINGS SPICY?
These lemon pepper wings are not super spicy, but they have a little kick. On a scale of one to ten, ten being the hottest, I would rate these wings a five.
If you are not into spice, cut back on the amount of hot sauce you put into the sauce.
I do not suggest omitting the hot sauce altogether, because that is one of the main flavor components in the sauce. Just cut the amount in half, and you should be okay.
Out of all of the air fryer wing recipes I have tried, this is by far the BEST one!
MAKING THE WINGS AHEAD OF TIME:
To make the wings ahead of time follow all of the instructions, but do not toss them in the sauce. If you wish to make them a day or two ahead of time, simply season and air fry. Store them in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
When you are ready to serve them, place them back in the air fryer on the “reheat function” for 5-7 minutes.
Prepare your hot honey lemon pepper sauce according to the instructions. Take the wings out of the air fryer and toss them in the sauce.
