Ingredients

1 lb split chicken wings (454 grams)
1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons corn starch
1 tablespoon finely shredded Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon seasoning salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon paprika
¼ teaspoon black pepper

Garlic Parmesan Sauce

¼ cup salted butter
¼ cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese
3 garlic cloves (or 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder)
¼ teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 and place a rack onto a rimmed baking sheet (optional but helps the wings to crisp on all sides). Spray the rack with non stick spray.
Dry wings with a paper towel. Place wings in a medium bowl and toss with oil.
In a small bowl, combine corn starch, 1 tablespoon Parmesan, seasoning salt, garlic powder, paprika and pepper. Add to wings and toss to coat.
Place wings on rack, leaving space in between each one.
Bake for 20 minutes, flip, and baking for 20 minutes more until crispy on both sides (the internal temperature will reach safe eating before they are crispy, so if you don't need them crispy, you can remove from the oven as soon as the internal temperature is 165 degrees F.) If desired, flip again and bake 10 minutes or until as crispy as you desire them.
Enjoy as is, with a sprinkle of freshly shredded Parmesan and parsley, or with the Garlic Parmesan Sauce below.

Garlic Parmesan Sauce:

In a medium bowl, melt the butter.
Stir in Parmesan, garlic and parsley.
Toss with the baked wings (optional: you can serve immediately or crisp them up further in the oven).

Notes

Ingredients and Substitutions:

Chicken wings: choose uncooked, split chicken wings for this recipe. It would also be great with small pieces of boneless chicken breast if your family prefers!
Garlic: I prefer to use garlic powder in this recipe as I don't enjoy chunks of garlic, but fresh garlic does have better flavor. You choose whichever you prefer!
Garlic Parmesan Sauce: honestly, I enjoy these wings just as much without the sauce -- they are super crispy and flavorful! But the sauce adds lots of flavor. Just be sure to serve them quickly after adding the sauce so that they don't become soggy, or serve it on the side.
