Fire up the grill and prepare these Lemon Garlic Chicken Wings for game day, movie night, or as irresistible appetizers at a backyard barbecue. Bright lemon and bold garlic coat the wings, and blistered shishito peppers provide a sweet-smoky counterpoint with a hint of heat that complements the chicken perfectly.
Nachos, dips, and of course wings—these are my go-to snack staples when feeding a hungry crowd. They’re quick to prepare, easy to eat with your hands, and versatile enough for casual gatherings or a more polished appetizer spread. These Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Wings with Shishito Peppers are a favorite for late-summer grilling when you want to keep the oven off and let the grill add a smoky finish.
Finger-lickin’ Grilled Chicken Wings
These wings are tangy, garlicky, and kissed with smoke from the grill. A simple lemon-garlic marinade tenderizes the meat and infuses it with bright flavor, while the reserved marinade helps dress the shishito peppers before they’re roasted to blistered perfection. The result is wings with a crisp exterior and juicy interior, paired with sweet, charred peppers that add a lively contrast.
