Wings: When you take out your thawed wings then pat them dry with a paper towel.
Baking Powder: This is the secret ingredient to making the wings crispy!

Parmesan Garlic Sauce

Butter: I used unsalted butter in this recipe.
Parmesan: This will br sprinkled on top, elevating the recipe!
Garlic Cloves: If you don’t have fresh garlic cloves then you can use minced garlic. ½ teaspoon equals about 1 clove of garlic.

Fresh chopped parsley and grated parmesan: These are optional and can be used on top for garnish!

Let’s Bake Some Crispy Wings!

These parmesan garlic wings are so simple to throw together, and then you just have to be patient and wait for them to cook! So while these are in the oven, it’s the perfect time to throw together some dips to go with these wings!

Preheat: Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil and lightly spray with cooking spray. In a ziplock bag add the wings. Add the baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper and shake to coat evenly. Place them on your prepared baking sheet.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until crispy and no longer pink.
Make Sauce and Toss: Right before the wings are done, in a medium sized bowl add the melted butter, parmesan, garlic and honey and mix. Add the wings and toss until coated.
Garnish: Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and freshly grated parmesan.

Are Baked Wings Crispy?

Yes! I know that we usually associate wings with being fried, and that’s how they get that delicious crispy outside edge. But you can get that by baking them too! And as a bonus, baking these parmesan garlic wings is healthier than cooking them in oil! When you coat the outside of these wings with baking soda, it mixes with the juices while it bakes. The juices and baking soda combine and make the outside bubble. This is what creates that crispy skin!

Can I Store Leftover Wings?

Yes! These parmesan garlic wings can be stored and reheated for leftovers the next day. And the great thing is, they taste just as good as day one!

Refrigerate: When you wings have cooled then place them in an airtight container and put them in the fridge. They will last 3-4 days.
Reheat: Once you are ready to eat your leftover wings then preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Put the wings on a baking sheet and cook them for 10-20 minutes until they are heated through. Chicken is done and safe to eat when it reaches 165 degrees.
