Garlic Parmigiano Wings with Gorgonzola Dipping Sauce
I am a chicken wing lover. This Italian style version with a squeeze of lemon on top is crazy good! You can also pair it with a gorgonzola dip, chef’s kiss! The key to getting a crispy wing in the oven is baking powder. A little goes a long way!
