  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Chicken Wings

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Pat the wings dry with paper towels to help them crisp up.
  3. Season both sides of the wings with salt and pepper.
  4. In a large oven-safe skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat.
  5. Sear the wings for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  6. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until wings are cooked through and crispy (internal temp should reach 165°F/75°C).

Step 2: Make the Alfredo Sauce

  1. In a medium saucepan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
  2. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant (do not let it brown).
  3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Let it cook for 3–5 minutes to thicken slightly.
  4. Stir in Parmesan cheese and whisk until melted and smooth.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat.

Step 3: Toss and Coat

  1. Remove wings from the oven.
  2. Place them in the Alfredo sauce or pour the sauce over them in the skillet.
  3. Gently toss to fully coat each wing in the creamy sauce.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

  • Sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
  • Serve hot with mashed potatoes, salad, or crusty bread for a complete meal.

Tips & Variations

  • Spicy Version: Add ½ teaspoon red chili flakes or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the Alfredo sauce.
  • Cheesier Sauce: Add a bit of mozzarella or Romano cheese for an extra cheesy pull.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat gently on the stove or in the oven.
