1-Getting started with this recipe is straightforward, beginning with preheating your oven for optimal results. Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C) and line a baking sheet with foil, placing a lightly oiled wire rack on top for crispiness. Pat the chicken wings dry and toss them with flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder in a large bowl.

2-Arrange the wings in a single layer on the rack, making sure they’re spaced apart to promote even cooking. Bake at 450°F for 15 minutes, then reduce the heat to 425°F and bake for another 15 minutes until they’re golden and crispy. While the wings bake, mix the melted butter, parmesan, mayonnaise, garlic, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper in a bowl to create the flavorful sauce.

3-Once baked, toss the wings thoroughly in the garlic butter parmesan sauce and return them to the rack-lined baking sheet. Bake for an additional 10 minutes to let the sauce set, then let the wings rest for 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra parmesan and parsley for a fresh finish, and remember to adjust for dietary needs like using cauliflower florets for vegan versions.
