Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Wings

  • 2 lbs fresh or thawed chicken wings, skin on

Seasonings & Coating

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning

Garlic Parmesan Sauce

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup finely grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Wings: Pat your chicken wings dry with paper towels. This removes excess moisture and helps them achieve extra crispy skin during cooking.
  2. Season and Coat: In a large bowl, toss the wings with olive oil, salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning to ensure a well-rounded flavor base before baking.
  3. Bake Until Crispy: Arrange the wings in a single layer on a wire rack placed over a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 425°F (220°C) for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through to ensure even crispiness.
  4. Make the Garlic Parmesan Sauce: While the wings bake, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir in minced garlic and cook gently until fragrant, being careful not to brown it. Remove from heat and mix in the grated Parmesan cheese.
  5. Toss Wings in Sauce: Once wings are golden and crispy, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the warm garlic Parmesan sauce over the wings and toss well to coat each piece thoroughly.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce or enjoy them as is!

Notes

  • Dry wings thoroughly before seasoning for optimal crispiness.
  • Use a wire rack during baking to allow air circulation around the wings.
  • Cook garlic gently in butter to release flavor without burning.
  • Grate Parmesan cheese fresh for better melting and crisping.
  • Serve wings hot and fresh to maintain the crisp coating.
