How do you make crispy wings with out deep frying?
I much prefer baking wings to frying them, as they’re much healthier and make less of a mess in the kitchen.

How do I separate the wings into drumettes and flats?
To separate your wings into drumettes and flats place your wings on a cutting mat and cut through the joints between the drums, flats, and tips. Poultry shears would also work great here. If you prefer, you can also purchase your wings already separated for a slightly higher price. Make sure to cut off the wing tip as they tend to burn and have no meat.
Why do you boil the Wings First?
The boil helps to open up the pores of the skin and allows the hot air to circulate better when baking, resulting in a crispier wing. If you don’t have a steamer, you can place the wings on a cooling rack over a baking sheet filled with boiling water for about 5 minutes.

The best way to reheat garlic parmesan wings is in the oven. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the chicken wings on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper. Bake for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.

Tips for Making Crispy Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings in the Oven
The key to getting these chicken wings crispy is to cook them at a high temperature. 425 degrees Fahrenheit is the perfect temperature to get them nice and crispy without burning them.
Another tip is to use a wire rack when baking the chicken wings. This will help them get even crispier by allowing air to circulate around all sides of the wing.
If you don’t have a wire rack, you can place the chicken wings on a foil-lined baking sheet. Just be sure to spray the foil with cooking spray so the wings don’t stick.
