Cut the lemons in half and squeeze them evenly over the wings, then cut each half in half again and nestle them in-between the wings.
Pour over the olive oil then sprinkle over the oregano, cracked black pepper and salt.
Place the wings in the oven and roast for an hour until golden.
Serve immediately with the gummy sticky lemon pieces.
Notes
There is quite a lot of black pepper on these wings, I love it like this, it adds a wonderful aromatic background heat to the chicken, but I always leave a few wings pepperless, or at least lightly peppered to give to the boys. If you are sensitive to pepper or like a mild dinner than just grind over a small amount of pepper, the result won't be quite as aromatic but I can tell you they will still be demolished.
