BOXT Profile One & Lemon Pepper Wings
Is there anything better than snacking on a big plate of wings?!
The only thing I can think of is snacking on a big plate of wings AND a delicious glass of wine! Now make that wine a premium wine that’s on tap (and in a gorgeous BOXT!) and you just created the best snack ever!
I’m so excited to partner with DRINK BOXT as their Chief Wine Educator and I’m really excited to kick off this partnership with some amazing food & BOXT wine pairings ALL WEEK LONG - starting with these delicious Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings paired with BOXT Profile One (Bright, Clean, Crisp, Dry)!

Ingredients:
2 pounds of Chicken Wings (separated at joint and wing tip removed)
1 Tbsp Baking Powder
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
Avocado Oil Spray
1 Tbsp of Lemon Pepper Seasoning (I used Trader Joe’s)
3 Tbsp Butter
1 Lemon
Parsley
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425 and place chicken wings in large bowl
Add baking powder and salt over chicken wings and toss
Arrange wings on baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for 40 min. until brown and crisp (I turned my wings halfway through and coated with avocado oil spray!)
Remove wings from oven and place in another large bowl. Melt butter and pour into bowl, coating the wings.
Add in the lemon pepper seasoning and coat wings
Zest lemon over wings and mix
Squeeze juice of 1/2 lemon over wings and mix
Plate wings and garnish with parsley and lemon slices!

Wine Pairing notes:
White wines are the perfect pairing for chicken dishes. The crisp acidity of BOXT Profile One pairs perfectly with the lemon citrus flavors of these wings and makes for the most delicious snacking combo!
Cheers!
