Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together buttermilk, salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper until well combined.
  3. Add chicken wings to the buttermilk mixture, ensuring they are thoroughly coated. Cover and let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Combine panko breadcrumbs and grated Parmesan cheese in a shallow dish, mixing well.
  5. Remove wings from the buttermilk mixture and coat each wing in the panko and Parmesan mixture.
  6. Place the coated wings onto the prepared baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil or melted butter, ensuring space between them.
