Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Arrange the wings in a single layer on the rack.
Cooking
- Bake the wings in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Sauce Preparation
- While the wings are baking, melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
- Remove from heat and stir in Parmesan, parsley, and red pepper flakes.
Assembly
- Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a mixing bowl and pour the sauce over. Toss until well coated.
- Serve immediately while hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired.
Notes
For maximum crispiness, pat the wings dry before seasoning them. Don’t overcrowd the baking sheet for the best results.
