Wings are always just a good idea, no matter the season.  They’re perfect for a party or a quiet night at home alike, an appetizer, meal, snack – you name it!  

Summer grilling season is definitely no exception.  With a light, lemony sauce that’s packed with garlic and fresh parsley, these simple grilled chicken wings are the perfect addition to your next BBQ or cookout.  They’re even kid approved – which is saying a lot coming from my family!

What You Need to Make Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Wings

You can make seriously flavorful filled chicken wings with just a few fresh ingredients.  Here’s what you’ll need to prepare the wings:

  • 2 lbs chicken wings, split into wingettes and drumettes
  • Sea salt and black pepper
  • Olive Oil or avocado oil
  • Fresh lemon Juice
  • Lemon zest
  • Fresh garlic
  • Fresh parsley
  • Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil

How to Make Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Wings

Place the wings in a large bowl and sprinkle all over with sea salt and pepper.  In a large measuring cup, whisk together the oil, lemon juice, zest, garlic, salt, and pepper.  

Pour about 3/4 of this mixture over the wings and toss to coat.  Save the remaining marinade for after grilling. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate for 1-2 hours.   

For the grilling step, I used Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil to create packets for grilling.  It works perfectly on the grill, especially with saucy wings! You won’t have to worry about the foil breaking or tearing either, and it helps to lock in the flavor and juices to make prepping, grilling and cleanup super easy.

Divide the wings between two 16” sheets of Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil to create foil packets. Discarding excess marinade, wrap and seal the foil packets:

Bring up the long sides of the foil and double-fold.  Then, bring up the short ends of the foil and double-fold again to seal the packets.  

Heat your grill to high heat, place both foil packets on the grill, and grill for a total of 20-25 minutes, turning once midway.  Be careful removing the packets from the grill since the foil will be extremely hot.

Serving Lemon Garlic Grilled Chicken Wings 

Very carefully open the foil packets, watching out for hot steam, and place wings on a serving platter.  

Stir the parsley into the remaining lemon-garlic mixture and drizzle over the chicken wings to serve.  

These are great as a meal with cauliflower rice, grilled veggies, or potato salad, or as an appetizer.  They’ll go perfectly with all your favorite sides and salads!  Easy and versatile!  

I hope you’re ready for super tasty wings made easy and no-fuss with Reynolds Wrap® Heavy Duty Foil.  Grab your ingredients and let’s go!

    Hi! I love your recipes and appreciate your time. Thank you!! We’d like to try this one, but need an oven substitute. I epically over and undercook everything, and can’t afford to experiment on our groceries. Any thoughts for the oven? Thank you! Have a great day! = )
