Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings
What You Should Know
You'd find these wings in the supermarket's fresh meat case or frozen aisle—an easy grab for game-day spreads, backyard grills, or casual weekend dinners. They feel indulgent and nostalgic, a zesty, finger-food crowd-pleaser rather than a health-forward item. The short ingredient list and intact meat texture, with only a simple seasoning (including citric acid), suggest a processed prepared meat rather than a reformulated ultra-processed product.
