In a large bowl, add all the ingredients for the lemon pepper chicken marinade and mix until fully combined. Add the chicken wings and toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes or up to 24 hours for deeper flavor.
In a container with a tight fitting lid, add all the ingredients for the lemon pepper infused hot honey. Stir to combine, then cover and set aside at room temperature for one to two hours so the flavors can fully marry. Stir again before using.
In a large bowl, whisk together all the ingredients for the crispy breading until evenly mixed. Set aside.
Heat canola oil in a large heavy bottom pot to 350F. Working in batches, dredge the marinated chicken wings in the crispy breading, making sure each wing is fully coated. Shake off excess flour and carefully lower into the hot oil.
Fry the wings for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 165F.
Remove the wings from the oil and allow them to rest briefly on a wire rack or paper towels.
While the wings are still hot, drizzle or toss generously with the lemon pepper infused hot honey until fully coated. Serve immediately with homemade ranch and enjoy every crispy, sticky bite.
