Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs chicken wings
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 3 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tbsp honey
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 pieces lemon wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°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 for airflow under the wings for a crispy result.
In a large mixing bowl, add the chicken wings, olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Toss the wings until evenly coated with the seasonings.
Lay the seasoned wings in a single layer on the wire rack, ensuring none are overlapping. Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, turning them halfway through cooking, until golden brown and crispy.
While the wings are baking, prepare the Parmesan Dijon glaze. In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the Dijon mustard and honey until smooth and emulsified. Remove the pan from heat and stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
Once the wings are finished baking, remove them from the oven and transfer them back to a clean mixing bowl. Pour the Parmesan Dijon glaze over the wings and gently toss until all wings are evenly coated.
Plate the wings on a serving dish, sprinkling with additional Parmesan cheese and parsley if desired. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side for an added burst of freshness. Enjoy!
