Instructions

Step 1. In a large bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and lemon juice.

Step 2. Add the chicken wings and toss until evenly coated. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Step 3. Preheat a grill, grill pan, or oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 4. Cook the wings for 25–30 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).

Step 5. While the wings cook, soak the potato fries in cold water for 20 minutes. Drain and pat dry thoroughly.

Step 6. Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 350°F (175°C).

Step 7. Fry the potatoes in batches for 5–7 minutes until golden and crispy.

Step 8. Remove the fries and season immediately with salt and paprika.

Step 9. In a large bowl, combine the lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, and feta cheese.

Step 10. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, salt, and black pepper.

Step 11. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Step 12. Arrange the grilled chicken wings, French fries, and Greek salad on serving plates.

Step 13. Serve immediately while hot and fresh.

Storage and Reheating Tips

Store leftover chicken wings, fries, and salad separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Reheat the wings in a 375°F (190°C) oven or air fryer for 8–10 minutes until heated through.

Reheat the fries in an air fryer or oven at 400°F (200°C) for 4–6 minutes to restore crispness.

The Greek salad is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored for up to 1 day if the dressing is kept separate.

Avoid freezing the salad, as the vegetables will lose their texture.

For best results, prepare fresh fries when serving leftovers.
