How to Serve?

These lemon oregano chicken wings pair wonderfully with a variety of side dishes. Here are some of my favorite serving suggestions:

• Crispy potatoes – roasted or fried, they make the perfect crunchy companion.
• Tzatziki sauce – the coolness of yogurt with cucumbers and garlic balances the tangy wings perfectly.
• Carrot dip – a sweet and savory dip that adds a fun twist.
• Garlic potatoes – because more garlic is always a good idea!
• Crusty sourdough bread – soak up all those delicious juices!
• A cold glass of wine – white or rosé pairs beautifully with the citrusy, herby flavors.
