Ingredients
Scale
- 2 pounds chicken wings, cleaned and patted dry

- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream

- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the chicken wings in olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Arrange them evenly on the baking sheet.
