Parmesan Chicken Wings are a crispy, flavorful twist on classic wings. Baked instead of fried, they’re coated in garlic and Parmesan for a golden finish with irresistible crunch. Tossed in a buttery garlic-Parmesan sauce and finished with fresh parsley, these wings are the perfect balance of savory, cheesy, and aromatic flavors. Serve them hot as a party appetizer, game-day snack, or even as a main dish with a side salad or fries.
Ingredients:
- 2.2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Wash and pat the chicken wings dry. Season with baking powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Arrange the wings on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 30 minutes, turning once halfway through.
- In a small pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Lightly sauté the minced garlic, then stir in ¼ cup of Parmesan until smooth.
- Brush the wings on both sides with the garlic-butter mixture. Sprinkle with the remaining Parmesan and fresh parsley.
- Return the wings to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, until golden brown and crispy.
- Serve hot with extra Parmesan or your favorite dipping sauce.
