Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken wings
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon ghee
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 3 cloves minced garlic
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the chicken wings, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the wings evenly.
Step 3
Place the seasoned wings on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Flip the wings and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the wings are golden brown and crispy.
Step 5
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over low heat, melt the ghee. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped parsley and nutritional yeast, creating a 'parmesan' topping.
Step 7
Once the wings are done, remove them from the oven. Using a brush or a large spoon, coat the wings with the garlic 'parmesan' mixture.
Step 8
Serve immediately while hot, garnished with extra parsley if desired. Enjoy your Whole30 Garlic Parmesan Chicken Wings!
