Ingredients
For the Chicken Wings:
2 lbs chicken wings (drums and flats separated)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
For the Garlic Parmesan Sauce:
3 tablespoons butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon chopped parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the Chicken Wings
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels. This ensures they become crispy during cooking.
Toss the wings in olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
Arrange the wings on the wire rack in a single layer. Bake for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
(Alternatively, you can deep-fry the wings at 375°F for 8-10 minutes until crispy.)
2. Make the Garlic Parmesan Sauce
While the wings are baking, prepare the sauce. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a gentle simmer.
Add the grated parmesan cheese and stir until the cheese is melted and the sauce is smooth.
Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper to taste. Reduce the heat to low and keep the sauce warm.
3. Toss and Serve
Once the wings are cooked, transfer them to a large mixing bowl.
Pour the garlic parmesan sauce over the wings and toss until they are evenly coated.
Garnish with chopped parsley and additional parmesan cheese, if desired.
4. Serve
Serve the wings hot with a side of ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
