Lemon Chicken Wings

Here is a great recipe for wings.

INGREDIENTS:

• 4 lbs chicken wings
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 Tablespoons minced fresh rosemary, or 1/2 teaspoon ground dried
• 1 teaspoon coarse salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Rinse the wings, pat dry with a paper towel and then tuck back the tips (or snip the tips for a neater presentation). Mix all of the above ingredients, except the wings, in a stainless steel or other bowl that won't react to the lemon juice. Add the chicken and marinade overnight.

Preheat oven to 350F

Roast the wings, uncovered, for one hour. Serve promptly as an appetizer or for a meal over cooked barley, local mashed potatoes or rice.
