Garlic Parmesan Wings
Description
This recipe starts by drying and coating chicken wings with flour, baking powder, seasoned salt, and black pepper, then baking them until crispy and browned at a moderate oven temperature. A garlic-parmesan butter sauce combines melted butter with grated Parmesan, garlic powder, fresh parsley, black pepper, and a few dashes of hot sauce for mild heat. Half the sauce is used to coat the wings before a final high-temperature bake crisps the cheese and wings further. Remaining sauce coats the wings after baking, with optional extra cheese and parsley garnish.
These wings deliver a crisp exterior with a savory, subtly garlicky flavor from the Parmesan and seasonings, balanced by a dash of hot sauce for slight warmth. Baking rather than frying produces a slightly lighter texture with a crunchy cheese crust.
Best served hot, they can be enjoyed as a snack, appetizer, or part of a meal. Variations include cooking in an air fryer with adjusted seasoning steps for similar results.
Fresh garlic can be substituted for garlic powder if a stronger garlic flavor is preferred. Wings can also be tossed in sauce once cooked and served immediately without further baking.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds chicken wings split and tips removed, 36 split wings total
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon seasoned salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
Sauce
- ⅓ cup butter slightly cooled, melted
- ½ cup Parmesan Cheese grated
- 1 tablespoon parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon seasoned salt
- 4-6 dashes hot sauce Tobasco
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F.
- Pat the wings dry with a paper towel.
- Toss the wings with flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
- Line a pan with foil and place parchment paper on it. Arrange wings in a single layer on the pan.
- Bake the wings for 20 minutes, flip, and then bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until crispy and browned.
- In a medium bowl, combine butter, parmesan cheese, parsley, garlic powder, pepper, salt, and hot sauce. Toss half of the sauce with the cooked wings.
- Increase the oven temperature to 475°F and bake the wings for 8-10 more minutes, or until golden and crisp. (Broil if desired.)
- Remove the wings from the oven and toss with the remaining sauce.
- Garnish with extra parmesan and parsley.
Notes
- Garlic powder provides a subtler garlic flavor, but fresh garlic can be used for a more pronounced taste.
- After initial baking, tossing wings with half the sauce and baking again crisps the Parmesan coating well.
- For air fryer preparation, skip flour and baking powder, and air fry wings before tossing in sauce and finishing.
