Skip the trip to the sports bar and make garlic Parmesan wings at home. The cheesy garlic butter sauce maximizes flavor, while a quick pass under the broiler makes them outrageously crispy.

Ingredients

  • 12 chicken wings (about 2-1/2 pounds)
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon coarsely ground pepper
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°. Line two 15x10x1-in. baking pans with foil and coat with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine baking powder, garlic powder, salt and pepper; set aside.
  2. Using a sharp knife, cut through the two wing joints; discard wing tips. Place remaining wing pieces in spice mixture, toss to coat, shaking off excess.
  3. Place wings on prepared pan. Let stand 5 minutes. Bake until juices run clear, 35-40 minutes, turning once.
  4. Meanwhile, in a small bowl combine butter, parmesan, parsley and garlic. Toss cooked chicken wings in butter sauce.
  5. Preheat broiler. Place wings on a greased rack of a broiler pan. Broil 3-4 in. from heat, until skin is crisp, 2-3 minutes. Serve immediately.

Take a bite out of these perfectly seasoned chicken wings. Golden brown and crispy, the skin is flavored with garlic powder, parmesan cheese and herby parsley. Enhance the flavors by dipping it in a garlic parmesan or sriracha mayo sauce, or stick to the classics like bleu cheese and ranch. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen, Milwaukee, Wisconsin
