Most of the time we enjoy our wings this way and they're so easy to make using less oil and still, have the crispy outside of fried chicken but oven-fried.
I marinate them, then use one of our many styles of 18 chicken wing dipping sauces!
If you have never tried to bake wings, you will be pleasantly surprised just how crunchy and tender these are.
With a little Italian herb and garlic flavor in this terrific easy marinade, these wings will be your next new favorite way to eat them!
To feed my crowd I usually make around 3 pans of baked wings and triple the sauce, the family favorite sauce is the Parmesan Garlic sauce with butter!

Healthy Baked Wings
There is so much more fat in frying wings but we love wings so baked is delicious too!
This is such a healthy alternative to frying, still has a little bit of fat with the coating. less fat and oh-so flavorful.
Of course, if you prefer fried, you can still make these fried. The marinade is fantastic, it keeps them tender and juicy.
Just imagine, crispy baked wings with a crunchy parmesan coating that is just out of this world awesome!
I usually make around 32 wings at a time so double, triple whatever you need to feed your crowd, these go fast believe me!
