Total Time: 1 hr Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 45 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 30 chicken wings
• 3 heads garlic
• 1 cup olive oil
• 2 teaspoons tabasco sauce
• 1 1/2 cups parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup fine breadcrumbs
• 1 teaspoon black pepper

Recipe

• 1 boil the wings for approximately a half hour to cook off all the fat.
• 2 drain in a colander and rinse off any remaining fat particles.
• 3 in a food processor, combine the 3 heads of garlic, olive oil and tabasco sauce.
• 4 puree until smooth.
• 5 in a dish combine the cheese, breadcrumbs and pepper.
• 6 mix well.
• 7 dunk the cooked wings into the garlic puree and then immediately into the dry mixture to coat.
• 8 place in a shallow baking dish.
• 9 repeat until all wings are coated.
• 10 bake in 425 degree oven for 35 minutes. this will make them crunchy and brown.
• 11 check them at approximately 25 minutes, depending on the size of the wings they may already be done and you don't want the breading to burn.
• 12 remember, they are already cooked since they were boiled first so once the crust is browned they can be taken out.
• 13 every oven varies as does the chicken size so watch them carefully.
• 14 once they burn they don't taste the same. enjoy!
• 15 these will keep overnight if you want to make them a day ahead. i bread them and then put them in the fridge. this way all i need to do is pop them in the oven once my guests arrive. they take approximately 45 minutes if i make them this way, but check them at 30 minutes again to be safe.
