A creamy and flavorful sauce that elevates your chicken wings while being low in carbs, perfect for busy weeknights or game day gatherings.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound Chicken Wings Provides the main protein source, tender and delicious.
- 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Adds richness and helps with a crisp texture.
- 2 tablespoons Butter Creaminess and a smooth finish enhance flavor.
- 4 cloves Minced Garlic Essential for that robust garlic flavor.
- 2 tablespoons Chopped Parsley Freshness and color contrast.
- 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances all the flavors in the sauce.
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Key ingredient for that creamy, cheesy richness.
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse the chicken wings under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Coat the wings with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly covered.
- Sprinkle salt over the wings and toss to distribute the seasoning.
Cooking
- Spread the wings evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway, until the wings are crispy and golden brown.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter.
- Add minced garlic and simmer for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, then remove from heat.
- Stir in grated Parmesan and chopped parsley until combined, creating a creamy sauce.
Serving
- Remove the wings from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
- Pour the sauce over the wings in a large bowl and toss to coat completely.
- Serve warm, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
Notes
For extra crispiness, broil the wings for the last 2-3 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure wings reach 165°F (74°C) internally. Make the sauce ahead of time and store it in the fridge for quick meals.
