Lemon Pepper Wing Sauce

Ingredients

• 1 tsp lemon zest – finely grated
• 1 tbsp lemon juice – fresh
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter – cut into pieces
• 1.5 tbsp lemon pepper seasoning
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.125 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

1. Have the lemon zest and lemon juice measured and ready.
2. Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over low heat until fully melted and foamy but not browned, 2–3 minutes.
3. Remove from heat and whisk in the lemon pepper seasoning and garlic powder until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Whisk in the lemon juice and lemon zest until combined.
4. Return the pan to low heat and whisk constantly until the sauce looks glossy and emulsified, 1–2 minutes; do not let it boil.
5. Taste and season with the kosher salt.
6. Toss immediately with hot, cooked wings until evenly coated, or keep warm on the lowest heat up to 10 minutes, whisking occasionally. Use the sauce the same day for best texture and flavor.
