Crispy Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Wings with Herb Ranch Dip

These zesty lemon pepper wings deliver bright, citrusy flavor with a perfect peppery kick, all achieved in the air fryer for maximum crispiness with minimal oil. The homemade lemon pepper seasoning creates a more vibrant flavor than store-bought versions, while the air fryer ensures incredibly crispy skin that rivals deep-fried wings. Paired with a lighter herb ranch dip made with Greek yogurt, these wings offer a refreshing alternative to traditional buffalo wings that's perfect for any gathering.
