Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, season the 2 pounds chicken wings with salt and pepper to taste and ½ teaspoon garlic powder. Toss to coat and arrange the wings in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake the wings for 40 to 45 minutes, until golden and crisp (flip once about halfway through baking if you want more even browning).
- While the wings bake, combine the Parmesan mixture in a small bowl: ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, ¼ cup chopped parsley, 1 teaspoon red pepper chili flakes, the remaining ½ teaspoon garlic powder, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well.
- When the wings are done, transfer them immediately to a large bowl. Sprinkle the Parmesan mixture over the hot wings.
- Toss the wings well so each piece is evenly coated with the Parmesan mixture. Serve right away.
Notes
My wings already came pre-cut into wingettes and drumettes, but if they are not, remove the wing tip then cut them vertically through the joint. Discard the wing tip.
If your wings aren’t golden and crispy after 45 minutes, turn the broiler on and broil them for about 3 more minutes, watching them carefully as they could burn quickly.
