From Taste of Home October/November 2003. Donna Pierce of Lady Lake, Florida writes, "I developed this recipe several years ago using chicken breasts, then decided to try it on wings as an appetizer -- and it was a hit! If you like garlic, you're sure to enjoy these tender zesty bites."

Time 1h45m

Yield 2 1/2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 garlic, bulbs whole (large)
1 tablespoon olive oil or 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, divided
1/2 cup olive oil or 1/2 cup vegetable oil, divided
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, melted

1 1/2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
3/4 cup grated romano cheese

Steps:

  • Remove papery outer skin from garlic (do not peel or seperate cloves). Cut top off garlic bulbs. Brush with 1 tablespoon oil. Wrap each bulb in heavy duty foil. Bake at 425 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until softened. Cool 10-15 minutes.
  • Squeeze the softened garlic in to a food processor. Add butter, hot pepper sauce, and remaining oil, cover and process until smooth. Pour into a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheeses, and pepper.
  • Cut chicken wings into three sections; discard wing tip section.
  • Dip chicken wings into the garlic mixture, then coat with crumb mixture. Place on a greased rack in a 15-in x 10-in x 1-in baking pan; drizzle with any remaining garlic mixture.
  • Bake uncovered, at 350 degrees for 50-55 minutes or until chicken juices run clear.
