Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 1.5 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 cup buffalo sauce
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet to allow even cooking.
Pat the chicken wings dry using paper towels. This step helps to make them extra crispy.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the chicken wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Arrange the wings on the prepared rack in a single layer, making sure they're not overcrowded.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the wings and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the garlic parmesan buffalo sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the buffalo sauce and grated Parmesan cheese until combined.
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl and pour the garlic parmesan buffalo sauce over the wings. Toss to coat evenly.
Garnish with chopped parsley if desired and serve immediately. Enjoy your Garlic Parmesan Buffalo Wings!
