Spice up Game Day with this Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings Recipe! Loaded with spicy bits of garlic and savory parmesan, you’ll score big points with this Chicken Wing Recipe!
I have a lot of Chicken Wings fanatics in my house. I have a couple go to chicken wing recipes that I make. Today I wanted to broaden our horizons with this amazing Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings Recipe!
Game Day and Chicken Wings go hand and hand in our home. If I’m not making Mom’s Garlic and Soy Sauce Wings I’m making Paul’s Sweet & Spicy Chicken Wings.
My son’s favorite is definitely Buffalo Chicken Wings though. The spicier they are the better! He loves to go to our local Chicken Wing Restaurant to order their hottest “After Burner” Buffalo Chicken Wings. I just look at him with a puzzled look on my face as I watch him eating these crazy hot wings. Rubber gloves on his hands so that he doesn’t burn his fingers, his nose running and tears pouring from his eyes….I’m not really sure how that’s enjoyable but he just can’t get enough!
This Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings Recipe has a little bit of heat added but no rubber gloves are needed! An herb seasoning is sprinkled on first and then they are baked to crispy perfection. After they come out they are tossed in minced garlic, freshly grated parmesan and chopped fresh basil leaves. They are absolutely amazing as is but to put them over the top I made a Blue Cheese/Dijon Dipping Sauce! Even my Buffalo lovin son was devouring them!
