Roasted Garlic and Parmesan Chicken Wings

My family and I have been visiting a local restaurant in town known as Buffalo Wild Wings. You have probably heard of it, and it is basically bar grub such as wings, burgers, flatbreads, and the like. When it first opened we were pretty stoked as the food was half way decent, the service was good, and it was a place where the kids could agree on. Over the course of the past year, if not more, service has gone down hill, and in my opinion so has their food. Their wings are becoming rubbery, even somewhat cold on one occasion, and their nachos, which both my wife and I love, are never consistent. Point of the story is two things; we stopped going, and I figure out how to make their garlic and parmesan sauce, which is finger licking delicious, and I’m not one to lick my fingers if you know what I’m saying.

I’m a sucker for really good wings, dry or wet, so why not take a chance and make them your own, right? I’m also into baked chicken wings, and a bit on the drier side, but you make them any way you desire. This sauce has that perfect tang, with awesome roasted garlic flavor. They were hard to stop eating, let’s just put it that way.

Let’s get started.

Ingredients:

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 8 cloves garlic, skin on
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried marjoram
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried basil
  • Generous pinch of red pepper flakes
  • Generous pinch of parsley flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 24-36 Baked or Fried Chicken wings

Start by getting a sheet of aluminum foil out, and place the garlic cloves on top. Drizzle with the olive oil, and place in a 350 degree oven for about 30 minutes. Remove, and let cool.

During this time, add the remaining ingredients to a small mixing bowl.  Once the garlic is cooled, remove from the skins, and mash into small bowl, then mix well into the sauce. Set this sauce, covered, in the refrigerator for at least one hour to let the flavors merry.

How to make garlic parmesan chicken wings

Deep fry or bake your wings until the are fully cooked and crispy. I like to bake mine. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.

Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Use two baking sheets if you have to. place the chicken onto the baking sheet, and place in the preheated oven for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Turn once around 60 minutes. After 1 1/2 hours, turn off the oven, and let them sit in there for another 15 minutes.

Once you are ready to eat and the wings are fully cooked, add them to a larger mixing bowl. Add in as much or as little sauce, and coat to your liking. Give them a nice toss and dig in.

The result is awesome. Perfectly crisp chicken wings with the roasted garlic and parmesan sauce just sold me that I no longer need to visit the longer Buffalo Wild Wings, plus I make better nachos to boot! Hope you enjoy!

    Really good recipe. I didnt have the marjoram thyme basil or parsley. I substituted with italian seasoning and added some onion powder and doubled up on the parmesan. Very flavorful and no msg or other poison you would find a BWW. Only thing is i used 7 whole wings and it just covered them. So i would at least double the recipe for the amount of wings it says it covers.
