The Best lemon pepper wing sauce recipe
This lemon pepper wing sauce is one of my favorite recipes to make for game days or any casual get together. My kids absolutely love the tangy lemon flavor mixed with the kick of black pepper. It is so simple to put together and uses ingredients I usually have on hand. The sauce is light and zesty, not heavy like some other wing sauces, and it coats the wings perfectly. I also like that it is a bit healthier than using a butter based sauce, since I use olive oil to cut down on saturated fat. This recipe has become a staple in our house and I think your family will love it too.
