Ingredients
- 2 lbs Chicken wings - mixture of wingettes or drumettes
- 1/4 cup Olive oil
- 1/4 cup Fresh lemon juice
- 2 tsp Grated lemon zest
- 5 cloves Garlic, grated
- Kosher salt and pepper to taste
- 1 lb Shishito peppers
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, garlic, salt and pepper. Reserve 2 tbsp of the marinade in another bowl.
- Next, add the chicken wings to a large zip lock bag and pour the marinade over the chicken wings. Close the bag and place it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to overnight for better flavoring.
- Remove the wings from the refrigerator and let them come to room temperature while you preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Also, spray a veggie basket with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a large bowl combine the reserved marinade and shishito peppers. Toss to combine and then add the shishito peppers to the prepared veggie basket.
- Grill the wings and shisito peppers for about 15 minutes; turning the wings midway through. The shishito peppers might cook quicker depending on your grill so be prepared to remove them prior to the wings being done. Remove the wings and shishito peppers from the grill and let rest before serving and garnishing with parsley.
