Baking the Wings
toss them in some flour. Maybe some flour and spices. Maybe even corn starch. Some say baking powder. Do it. Added one such option below
Then take those wings (knocking off excess powder) and put them on parchment paper. Then put it in the fridge. At least 30 minutes. I do it for an hour. Or more. Then when your ready, pre-heat the oven for 500. bake for about 13 minutes a side.
BAKED PARMESAN GARLIC CHICKEN WINGS
INGREDIENTS:
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon kosher or sea salt (1/2 tsp table salt)
2 1/2 pounds chicken wings
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (or melted butter)
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (like Lawry’s)
1 cup blue cheese dressing
1-2 teaspoons Dijon mustard (or to taste)
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a small bowl, mix together the oregano, rosemary, cumin and salt. Lay the chicken wings on a baking sheet and season the chicken wings with this mixture.
2. Bake the chicken wings as above. While the chicken is baking, mix together the oil, fresh basil, garlic, parmesan cheese and seasoning salt.
3. In a separate bowl, mix together the blue cheese dressing with the mustard (this is your dipping sauce) – i haven’t tried this yet
4. When the chicken is cooked through, toss the wings with the garlic/cheese/olive oil (or butter) sauce. Serve with the blue cheese/mustard dressing.
i skipped the seasoning salt, and the olive oil.. and actually just put the rest all in the first mix so it all baked.
buffalo sauce
- 1/3 cup hot pepper sauce (such as Frank’s RedHot®)
- 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter
- 2-1/4 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1/8 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- Combine the hot sauce, butter, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and salt in a pot and place over medium heat. Bring to a simmer while stirring with a whisk. As soon as the liquid begins to bubble on the sides of the pot, remove from heat, stir with the whisk, and set aside for use.
- after wings are baked, toss in some sauce. (i haven’t tried baking in the sauce yet)
