Crisp Keto Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Wings

Crisp Keto Air Fryer Lemon Pepper Wings are crispy, delicious, and simple to prepare in the air fryer.

Only 1g total carbs per serving, and you only have a few common ingredients to make these crispy wings.

It is easy and quick to prepare these crisp lemon-pepper-coated, air-fried wings with very little oil and minimal clean-up.

This was inspired by my Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings Recipe on this site.

My family enjoys these as a game-day snack or appetizer, and they can also serve with a big salad or side as a meal.

I use lemon pepper seasoning that is free of added sugars like this brand of sugar-free lemon pepper seasoning to keep the carbs as low as possible. But you could also make your own homemade lemon pepper seasoning.
