Ultra crispy, buttery, cheesy wings are a hard one to resist. Yes, we love the typical buffalo wings BUT this garlic and parm wings is quite difficult to resist! 🤤 We used both fresh garlic and garlic powder for that flavourful bite for this recipe and finished it off with a generous grating of parmesan and drizzle of butter - you’ve got yourself a winner dish right there! 😍
