Ingredients
  

2 lbs chicken wings

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

6 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 tsp garlic powder

1 tsp onion powder

1 tsp paprika

1/2 tsp salt

1/2 tsp black pepper

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Fresh lemon wedges (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. Place a wire rack on top of the baking sheet for extra crispiness.

    Prepare the Wings: If your chicken wings are whole, cut them into three parts at the joints (wingette, drumette, and tip). Pat them dry thoroughly with paper towels to ensure they get crispy.

      Make the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

        Coat the Wings: Place the chicken wings in a large mixing bowl. Pour the garlic Parmesan mixture over the wings and toss until they are thoroughly coated.

          Arrange on Rack: Spread the coated wings in a single layer on the wire rack. Make sure they are not touching to allow for even cooking and crispiness.

            Bake the Wings: Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping the wings halfway through the cooking time to ensure they are golden brown and crispy on all sides.

              Garnish and Serve: Once cooked, remove the wings from the oven. Drizzle any remaining garlic Parmesan mixture over the wings and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve hot with lemon wedges on the side for added zest.
