Ingredients:
For the Chicken Wings:
20-25 chicken wings
1 teaspoon Lawry’s seasoned salt
1/2 teaspoon Lawry’s garlic salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 tablespoons baking powder
For the Alfredo Sauce:
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons onion powder
3 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Chicken Wings:
Clean the Wings: Start by cleaning the chicken wings with salt, vinegar, and cold water. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with paper towels.
Season the Wings: In a large bowl, combine the Lawry’s seasoned salt, Lawry’s garlic salt, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, paprika, and baking powder. Mix well to evenly coat the chicken wings.
Bake the Wings: Arrange the seasoned wings on a cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, then flip the wings and bake for another 20 minutes. Flip once more and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the wings are crispy and fully cooked.
Prepare the Alfredo Sauce:
Melt the Butter: While the wings are baking, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Make the Sauce: Gradually whisk in the heavy whipping cream. Add salt, pepper, onion powder, and garlic powder. Bring the mixture to a light boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 3 minutes, or until it slightly thickens.
Add the Cheese: Stir in the shredded Parmesan cheese until the sauce is smooth and well combined.
Toss and Serve:
Once the wings are done baking, transfer them to a large bowl. Pour the Alfredo sauce over the wings and toss to coat them evenly. Serve hot and enjoy!
Serving Tips:
Presentation: For an appealing presentation, garnish your Alfredo Chicken Wings with a sprinkle of extra Parmesan cheese and some freshly chopped parsley. This adds a pop of color and enhances the visual appeal.
Dipping Sauces: Offer additional dipping sauces on the side, such as ranch or blue cheese dressing, to complement the creamy Alfredo flavor.
Accompaniments: Serve the wings with sides like garlic bread, a fresh green salad, or roasted vegetables to round out the meal.
Temperature: These wings are best enjoyed hot. If serving at a gathering, consider keeping them warm in a slow cooker set to low or a chafing dish.
Storage Tips:
Refrigeration: Store leftover Alfredo Chicken Wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will keep well for up to 3-4 days.
Freezing: For longer storage, you can freeze the cooked wings. Place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be frozen for up to 3 months. To reheat, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and then bake in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) until heated through and crispy.
Reheating: To maintain the crispy texture of the wings, reheat them in the oven rather than the microwave. Place them on a baking sheet and bake at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through.
Sauce Storage: Store any leftover Alfredo sauce separately from the wings. Keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat the sauce gently on the stove over low heat, stirring frequently.

FAQs:
Can I make Alfredo Chicken Wings in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the chicken wings and Alfredo sauce ahead of time. Cook the wings and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. You can also make the Alfredo sauce in advance and store it separately. Reheat both the wings and sauce before serving. For best results, reheat the wings in the oven to maintain their crispiness.
Can I use a different type of cheese in the Alfredo sauce?
While Parmesan cheese is traditional for Alfredo sauce, you can experiment with other cheeses if desired. Pecorino Romano or Asiago cheese can be used for a different flavor profile. Keep in mind that using different cheeses might slightly alter the taste and texture of the sauce.
How can I make the wings spicier?
If you prefer a spicier kick, you can add cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the seasoning mix for the chicken wings. Adjust the amount to your taste preference. You can also mix a bit of hot sauce into the Alfredo sauce for added heat.
Can I cook the chicken wings using a different method?
Yes, you can cook the wings using a different method if you prefer. They can be deep-fried or cooked in an air fryer instead of baking. For deep-frying, heat oil to 350°F (175°C) and cook the wings for about 8-10 minutes, or until crispy and cooked through. In an air fryer, cook the wings at 360°F (180°C) for 20-25 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through cooking for even crispiness.
