The poultry man in the Waiblingen market cuts the tips from the chicken wings before packaging them to sell. I always think of little elbows when I see them 🙂
One of the cousins posted a recipe on facebook for chicken wings seasoned with lemon, pepper and garlic that sounded easy and delicious. I just increased the garlic and was good to go! I served the elbows with a salad, pickled cucumber and fennel.
Lemon Pepper Chicken Wings
2lbs chicken wings
4 garlic cloves, finally chopped
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tbsp pepper
1/2 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
Put the chicken in a zip lock bag, then whisk the remaining ingredients in a bowl until well blended. Pour the marinade in the zip lock bag with the chicken and squish around. Marinate for at least 2 hours.
Remove the chicken from the bag, reserving the marinade. Place the wings in a roasting pan, skin side down and roast in a 425 F oven for 20 minutes, turn, baste and return to the oven for a further 15 minutes.
I always love it when you post chicken recipes… I want ‘elbows’ too.
They were great 🙂
this looks divine!!!
Thank you Tairina.
They do look like elbows and they sound delicious.
A very easy recipe Karen and the lemon-pepper flavor was wonderful.
I can never take chicken wings seriously…as food that is. However, these elbows are a different matter all together:)
🙂
I’m more a drumlet kind of girl, but the flavours sound amazing!
Yes, you could do the same with drumlettes or any piece of chicken, I imagine.
I love it. Chicken elbows. Bahaha!
Knew you would foodis 😀
Am I that predictable? 🙂
Oui, oui 😀
Argh, I’m a sucker for a good French accent 🙂

So, this comment is related to your post a while back with the threads of red pepper. I just saw them on another blog as well and apparently they’re used a lot in China and originally from Korea and called Sil koch’u. I went straight to koreatown and they had tons of them at a very reasonable price! So glad you used them and set me on the trail. They look like saffron and taste like heaven.
Glad you found them Amanda!
I should also mention what a totally cool snack these chicken elbows/wings are. I love how you serve them with pickles and fennel. Wonderful!
Thank you Amanda.
Wow really? The recipe’s that easy? It looks great, I’m emailing it to myself ASAP! Thanks 🙂
Really easy!
I always cut the tips and elbow off for stock, but now I have to rethink it. These sound delish.
Thank you Madonna.
I love lemon pepper wings. And the garlic just brings it together for me.
Garlic brings everything together Virginia! Maybe not cake 😀
There garlic ice cream. 🙂

Love the look of these “elbows”! What a moreish and tantalizing appearance.

This recipe looks delicious AND it fits the paleo autoimmune protocol (a rare thing). So, thank you! I recently started a weekly Paleo AIP Recipe Roundtable through my blog, and I would love it if you linked up this recipe. I’m trying to expand resources for the AIP community.
