Should I use fresh garlic or can I use jarred minced garlic?
You can use whatever you have available. Of course, it’s always a good idea to use fresh garlic for that added flavor it brings to the dish. However, if you only have the jarred minced garlic at home, you can use it on your wings.
What dipping sauce should I serve with these wings?
While it depends on your flavor preference, there are a few great dipping sauces that will taste amazing with the parmesan chicken wings, including ranch and marinara sauce. Of course, you can skip the dipping sauce or use other options based on what you like.
How can I save these parmesan chicken wings for later?
If you have leftovers, put them in a food storage container with parchment paper and place a lid on top, securing them in the fridge to keep them fresh. Then, when you need to reheat them, put the chicken wings in the oven or air fryer to get them hot and crisp again.

Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes to your liking based on the level of heat you want to achieve.
