Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings are high on the list of my favorite things. After getting them several times as takeout, I decided to make these at home. In this post, I share how to make the best garlic parmesan wings sauce that pairs perfectly on the crispiest air fryer chicken wings or baked wings.

If you’re like me, then you love the Garlic Parmesan Wings from places like Buffalo Wild Wings and Wing Stop. But, as I mentioned in my air fryer buffalo wings post, takeout can get expensive so I wanted to make these at home.

This copycat Garlic Parmesan Wings recipe tastes better than takeout. Plus, since you’re making the sauce at home, you get to skip all the random ingredients that tends to come in this sauce.

Make Garlic Parmesan Wing Sauce

Garlic Parmesan Wing Sauce includes grated parmesan cheese, melted butter, garlic powder, and dried parsley. I get my parmesan cheese from the refrigerated section of the market. This option has less sodium and packs more parmesan flavor.

To make the sauce, I mix all of the sauce ingredients together then toss the wings in it right before I’m ready to eat them.

How to make Garlic Parmesan Wings

Making Garlic Parmesan Wings is fairly simple.

  1. Crisp the wings by baking them in the oven or the air fryer
  2. Make Garlic Parmesan Sauce by melting butter in the microwave, then stirring in the remaining sauce ingredients
  3. Toss the wings in the sauce when you are ready to eat

Garlic Parm Wings in the Air Fryer:

You can use any air fryer to make your chicken wings. But, I get a lot of questions about the ones I’ve used. So, I’m including them below:

  • GoWiseUSA XL Air Fryer: This XL Electric Air Fryer was my first air fryer. I loved it because of its capacity. The size, 5.8qt, was enough to make a meal for about 3 people.
  • Ninja Foodi: More recently, I got a Ninja Foodi, which is an air fryer, pressure cooker, steamer, and more. As I explained in my Ninja Foodi Review, I gave away my GoWise because the Ninja Foodi had so many extra functions.

After you have your air fryer, follow the directions that I include in the recipe card from my air fryer chicken wings.

Baked Parmesan Garlic Chicken Wings

If you want to bake your wings in the oven instead or make enough food for a crowd then you should use my baked chicken wings recipe. I included the instructions as a note in the recipe card below.

Make Garlic Parm Wings a Meal:

These wings can be great as part of a keto meal prep. Since these wings are covered in a delicious and rich parmesan sauce, I tend to go light with the side dishes.

One way to keep this easy is to have these garlic parm chicken wings with a side salad that’s top with my keto balsamic vinaigrette or any of these low-carb salad dressings.

You can also opt to pair these with simple vegetable side dishes like Sauteed Green Beans, Air Fryer Green Beans, or Sauteed Asparagus.

Other Keto Chicken Recipes:

Chicken is one of the most popular proteins. If you’re interested in other chicken recipes, then you should try:

  • Air Fryer Whole Chicken
  • Buffalo Wings
  • Air Fryer Fried Chicken Wings
  • Dry Rub Chicken Wings
  • Air Fryer Chicken Legs

Equipment

  • Ninja Foodi

Ingredients

Chicken Wings

  • 1.5 lbs Chicken Wings, sectioned into flats and drums
  • 1/2 tsp Natural Ancient Sea Salt
  • 1/2 tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder, baking powder (You cannot swap baking soda in this recipe - I promise that the wings will not taste good if you do)

Garlic Parmesan Wings Sauce

  • 1/4 cup Butter, melted, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup grated parmesan, I use the fresh kind from the refrigerated section of the market. If you're using the unrefrigerated kind, you should use unsalted butter and cut the salt in half.
  • 1 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Dried Parsley
  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

  • Remove the chicken wing parts from the refrigerator and pat dry (removing as much moisture as possible helps to have a crispy wing skin)
  • Mix the sea salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder and baking powder in a small dish or ramekin
  • Sprinkle seasoning mixture on the wings and toss to coat
  • Place wings on a flat layer in the airfryer
  • Use the air-fryer programmed settings for chicken (400 degrees) and cook for 25-30 minutes. I set my timer 15 minutes, flipped the wings, then checked the wings at 5 minute intervals until the skin was crispy enough for me. Getting the wings crispy quickly requires you to flip them about halfway through.
  • Mix the all of the ingredients for the Garlic Parmesan sauce by stirring them in a small bowl
  • Toss the wings in the garlic parmesan mixture and serve immediately.

Recipe Notes

Baked Parmesan Garlic Chicken Wings
If you want to bake your wings in the oven instead, then you should use my baked chicken wings recipe to get the chicken wings crispy. That recipe requires you to cook these wings on 425 degrees for 25 minutes per side. After the wings are crisped, you simply toss them in the sauce.
