Ingredients:

  • 2 large lemons, zested and juiced (approx. 1/4 cup juice)
  • 1 tbsp honey or agave
  • 1/2 cup unsalted high-fat butter
  • 2 tbsp salt-free lemon pepper seasoning
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 1 pinch kosher salt

Instructions:

  1. Zest the 2 lemons directly into a cold non reactive saucepan. Add the 1/4 cup juice and 1 tbsp honey. Note: Starting in a cold pan ensures the zest releases its oils slowly into the liquid.
  2. Simmer the mixture over medium low heat for 2 minutes. Wait until it reduces into a thin, glossy syrup.
  3. Reduce the heat to the lowest setting possible. This prevents the butter from breaking immediately upon contact.
  4. Whisk in the 1/2 cup butter one tablespoon at a time. Do this until the sauce looks creamy and unified.
  5. Continue adding butter only after the previous piece has fully melted and incorporated. Note: This is the key to that professional wet texture.
  6. Stir in the 2 tbsp lemon pepper seasoning, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp onion powder.
  7. Add the 1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper and the pinch of kosher salt.
  8. Remove the pan from the heat immediately. Observe the aroma as the spices hit the hot butter.
  9. Let the sauce sit for 2 minutes. Watch as the seasonings bloom and the sauce thickens slightly.
  10. Pour the warm sauce over your crispy wings in a large bowl. Toss vigorously until every wing is glistening and fully coated.
