Pat chicken wings dry with paper towels and place them on a baking sheet.

In a Ziploc bag, combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 1 tablespoon Creole seasoning, 1 tablespoon oregano, 1/2 tablespoon black pepper, 1/2 tablespoon onion powder, and 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder.

Seal the bag and mix the marinade, then add the chicken wings and coat them well.

Refrigerate the marinated wings for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

In another Ziploc bag, mix 3 cups flour, 2 tablespoons Greek all-purpose seasoning, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon black pepper.

Heat oil in a deep fryer to 375°F (190°C).

Remove wings from the marinade and dredge them in the flour mixture, shaking off excess flour.

Fry the wings in batches for about 9 minutes until golden brown.

Remove wings from the fryer and let them drain on paper towels.

Garnish with crumbled feta cheese and parsley before serving.
