Tips
Ensure your deep fryer oil temperature remains steady at 350degF (175degC) to achieve a crispy exterior without undercooking the chicken inside. Use separate bowls for flour, buttermilk, and panko to maintain a proper coating sequence, which is crucial for the wings' texture. After frying, drain your chicken thoroughly on paper towels to remove excess oil and keep the wings from becoming soggy. When making the garlic Parmesan sauce, whisk the heavy cream and cheese continuously to prevent clumping and ensure a smooth, creamy finish that evenly coats Your wings.
Nutritions

Variation or Alternatives

Try baking the wings at 425degF (220degC) on a greased baking sheet for 20-25 minutes instead of frying to reduce oil content while maintaining crispiness. Swap Parmesan cheese for Pecorino Romano or Asiago to give the sauce a sharper and slightly saltier flavor profile. You could also add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter sauce for a subtle heat kick that complements the savory notes.
