Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds (900g) chicken wings, separated into drumettes and flats
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder (not baking soda)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (optional)
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon dried dill
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack on top.
  2. Pat the chicken wings dry with paper towels.
  3. In a large bowl, toss the wings with baking powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  4. Arrange the wings skin-side up on the wire rack, spacing about an inch apart.
  5. Bake for 25 minutes, then flip and bake for another 20 minutes. If needed, bake an additional 5-10 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
  6. While wings bake, combine melted butter and minced garlic in a small bowl and let sit for a few minutes.
  7. In another bowl, mix grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley.
  8. When wings are done, toss immediately in the garlic butter mixture, then toss in the parmesan and parsley mix.
  9. For the ranch dip, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Chill until ready to serve.
  10. Serve wings hot with the creamy ranch dip, garnished with extra parsley if desired.

Notes

Use baking powder (not baking soda) for crispy skin. Pat wings dry thoroughly before coating. Toss wings in garlic butter while hot for best flavor absorption. Broil 2-3 minutes if wings are not crispy enough after baking. Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream in ranch dip for a lighter option. For gluten-free, replace baking powder with cornstarch.
