Indulge your taste buds with a platter of irresistibly crispy wings, adorned with a delightful double punch of bold garlic, a generous sprinkle of savory Parmesan, and a touch of velvety melted butter. While traditional Buffalo sauced wings might leave you indifferent, these ultra-crispy delights promise a flavor-packed experience that will have you reaching for seconds.
Preparation Time: 10-15 minutes
Cooking Time: 55 minutes to 1 hour
Serving: 4 to 6
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon of garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
- 2 pounds of chicken wings
- 1 ounce of finely grated Parmesan cheese (about 1/4 cup), plus extra for serving
- 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley leaves
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 400ºF and position a rack in the middle. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack inside.
- In a small bowl, combine 1 1/2 teaspoons of kosher salt, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper.
- If necessary, prepare the chicken wings by removing the wing tips and separating them into flat and drumette sections using a chef’s knife or kitchen shears.
- Pat the wings dry with paper towels and arrange them on the rack in a single layer. Sprinkle the salt mixture evenly over the wings.
- Roast the wings in the oven until they are cooked through and the skin reaches a delightful crispiness, typically around 45 to 50 minutes.
- While the wings are roasting, finely grate 1 ounce of Parmesan cheese, chop 2 tablespoons of fresh parsley leaves, and mince 3 cloves of garlic. A few minutes before the wings are done, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter. Let it cool slightly, then mix it into the Parmesan mixture.
- Toss the cooked wings into the Parmesan mixture until evenly coated. Transfer them to a large plate or platter and, if desired, sprinkle more grated Parmesan on top.
