These crispy garlic Parmesan wings combine Italian herbs and Parmesan cheese for a flavorful, crunchy, and juicy homemade wing experience without deep frying. Perfect for game days, casual dinners, or snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds chicken wings, split into flats and drumettes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese (about 50 g)
  • 2 teaspoons Italian herb blend (dried oregano, basil, thyme, rosemary)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels to remove moisture.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the wings with 2 tablespoons of olive oil until evenly coated.
  4. In a smaller bowl, mix minced garlic, Parmesan cheese, Italian herb blend, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and optional red pepper flakes.
  5. Toss the wings in the seasoning mix, coating each wing thoroughly.
  6. Arrange wings in a single layer on a wire rack placed over a rimmed baking sheet, leaving space between each wing.
  7. Bake for 35-40 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through (about 20 minutes) to ensure even cooking and crisping.
  8. Check for doneness; internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C) or juices run clear.
  9. Remove from oven and let rest for 5 minutes.
  10. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Pat wings dry thoroughly to ensure crispiness. Use a wire rack to allow air circulation and prevent soggy bottoms. Flip wings halfway through baking for even crisping. For extra crispiness, broil for 1-2 minutes watching carefully. Toss wings with seasoning while still warm for better flavor melding. Reheat leftovers in oven at 375°F for 10-12 minutes to maintain crispness. Microwave reheating is not recommended.
