I am in yet another recipe swap this month, some months I do not know where I find the time, but they are fun. I found this one and I thought it sounded good, although there was mixed reviews from the 2 other people who had reviewed it. I thought they were excellent, I did use panko flakes instead of breadcrumbs, as I do with all recipes that require a breadcrumb coating. I much prefer these since finding them a few years back, these turned out with a crispy, crunchy outer coating and inside was so moist and tender. I served them with extra ranch on the side although it was so not needed. If you want to read more reviews or see other photos of this recipe please click here.

Ingredients

1 1/2lbs Chicken wings
1/4 Teaspoon onion powder
1/2 Teaspoon Italian seasoning
3/4 Cup dry breadcrumbs (I used only panko flakes)
1/4 Cup yellow cornmeal (I didn’t use cornmeal)
1/2 Cup Parmesan cheese, grated
1 Cup bottled ranch salad dressing
1/4 Teaspoon salt
1/4 Teaspoon pepper

Method

1. Remove wing tips. Cut or separate wing portions. If wet, pat dry with a paper towel.

2. In a small bowl combine onion powder, Italian seasoning, bread crumbs, cornmeal and Parmesan cheese.

3. In separate small bowl pour ranch dressing. Sprinkle wings with salt and pepper.

4. Dip wing portions into ranch dressing, then coat with crumb mixture.

5. Place chicken wings onto a sprayed or greased 9 x 13 baking pan.

6. Bake uncovered in a 375 degree oven for 45 minutes or until light brown.
