Crispy Garlic Parmesan Wings
Ingredients
  • cooking spray
  • 3 quarts cold water
  • 1/3 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup salt
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 8 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons red pepper flakes, or to taste
  • 4 pounds chicken wings, separated at joints, tips discarded
  • 2 tablespoons fine bread crumbs
  • 1 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, divided
Instructions
1
Heat your oven to a high temperature of 450 degrees Fahrenheit or 230 degrees Celsius. Cover a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray it with cooking spray for easy cleanup.
2
In a large container, mix together water, vinegar, one quarter cup of salt, a few sprigs of bay leaf, some thyme, oregano, and rosemary. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil and then add chicken wings back into the pot. Continue boiling for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3
Remove the chicken wings from the pot with a spoon and place them on a rack to cool down. Allow them to air dry for 15 minutes.
4
Mash the garlic cloves with a pinch of salt in a small bowl until you get a smooth paste.
5
In another large bowl, combine the mashed garlic, olive oil, black pepper, and some red pepper flakes. Mix everything together until well combined.
6
Add the chicken wings to the bowl with the garlic mixture and some bread crumbs. Toss everything together until the chicken wings are evenly coated.
7
Sprinkle the chicken wings with half a cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and then transfer them to the prepared baking sheet.
8
Cover the chicken wings with the remaining half a cup of Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese and put them in the preheated oven. Bake until browned, taking about 20 to 25 minutes.
9
Serve the chicken wings hot and enjoy your meal!
