Ingredients
Scale
- 2 lbs chicken wings, separated into flats and drumettes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Toss the chicken wings with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
- Arrange the seasoned wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and cooked through.
- While the wings bake, prepare the sauce. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Add the minced garlic to the melted butter and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Do not brown the garlic.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Whisk in the grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.
- Place the hot, cooked wings into a large bowl.
- Pour the garlic butter sauce over the wings. Toss gently to coat every piece evenly.
- Sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley before serving hot.
Notes
- For extra crispy wings, you can bake them on a wire rack placed over the baking sheet.
- If you prefer a stronger garlic flavor, you can increase the amount of minced garlic slightly.
- Use high-quality grated Parmesan cheese for the best flavor payoff.
