Ingredients
Scale
- 10–12 chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves fresh garlic (or 1 teaspoon garlic powder)
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (optional)
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
Instructions
- Prepare the Wings: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to ensure crispiness. Season them with salt, pepper, and olive oil, ensuring an even coat.
- Bake the Wings: Arrange the wings in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy. For extra crispiness, broil the wings for the last 2-3 minutes.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: While the wings bake, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic (or garlic powder) and sauté for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Remove from heat, then stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.
- Coat the Wings: Once baked, transfer the wings to a large mixing bowl. Pour the garlic Parmesan sauce over the wings and toss gently to coat evenly.
- Serve and Garnish: Serve the wings on a platter, garnished with fresh parsley for color. Enjoy hot.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, bake them on a wire rack on top of the baking sheet.
- If you prefer spicy wings, add red pepper flakes to the garlic butter sauce or drizzle with hot sauce before serving.
- You can also deep-fry the wings for an extra crispy texture if desired.
