Harissa and Lemon-Pepper Wings

You don’t need a bunch of ingredients to make out-of-this-world wings. A few flavor packed ingredients will do! Tangy and woody lemon-pepper mixed with the complex, smoky spice of harissa will give your usual wings some extra lift.

Step: 1

Mix together lemon-pepper seasoning and 1 tablespoon harissa paste in a bowl. Pat dry the wings and place in a resealable plastic bag. Add seasoning mix, close bag, and shake, massaging the seasoning until every part of wings is well coated. Refrigerate for 1 hour or more.

Step: 2

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C) and cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step: 3

Remove chicken wings from refrigerate and allow to come to room temperature while oven preheats.

Step: 4

Whisk remaining harissa paste and honey in a small bowl until fully mixed.

Step: 5

Place wings, meaty-sides up, on the prepared baking sheet, leaving at least 1 inch between each wing. Baste exposed sides with harissa-honey sauce.

Step: 6

Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn each wing and baste with remaining sauce. Bake until wings are cooked throughout and the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), 10 to 15 minutes more.

Step: 7

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven’s broiler. Crisp wings under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes, if desired. Top with fresh lemon zest before serving.
