Instructions
Crispy Baked Chicken Wings
To begin, preheat your oven to 400°F (205°C) and place a metal roasting rack on top of a large rimmed baking sheet.
Use paper towels to pat all of the 2 lbs chicken wings dry, then toss them in a bowl with the 2 tablespoon cornstarch. You only want a light dusting of cornstarch on every wing, not too much. Season with 1 teaspoon each, salt & pepper to taste.
Once seasoned, add the wings and 2 tablespoon vegetable oil to a large bowl and toss until coated. Place your wings on the roasting rack, making sure that there is space between each wing, and bake until they are crisp and golden (about 45-50 minutes).
Garlic Parmesan Sauce
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, melt the ½ cup butter . Once melted, add the 3 tablespoon garlic and saute until lightly browned and fragrant. Then, remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the freshly chopped 2 tablespoon fresh parsley and grated ½ cup Parmesan cheese.
Place your freshly baked, hot, chicken wings into a large bowl and pour the sauce over top. Toss the wings until they are thoroughly coated.
Remove your wings from the bowl and top them with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauces.
Notes
Try these wings with your favorite dipping sauces. Ranch, blue cheese, Caesar, or honey mustard would all be great options.
If you don't have a metal roasting rack (a wire cooling rack works too), you can still make these wings. They may be slightly less crispy, but still delicious.
Keep in mind that the calories and nutrition information account for eating all of the sauce, however, there will be sauce left after you toss your wings that you may discard.
