- 1/2 cup Unsalted butter Used for flavor; can use olive oil as an alternative
- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese Freshly grated is best for flavor

Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a rack on top.
- In a large bowl, melt the butter and mix in the minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Add the chicken wings to the bowl and toss until they are fully coated in the butter mixture.
- Arrange the coated wings on the rack in a single layer.
Cooking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until wings are crispy and golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy!
Notes
Ensure the wings are patted dry before coating to achieve a crispy texture. For extra flavor depth, consider adding crushed red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
