• Place the chicken wings into a deep bowl, and add the olive oil, garlic paste, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Save the parmesan and butter for later in the recipe.
• Thoroughly mix the wings so that each part is coated. If you wish, you can cover the bowl with cling film and leave for 30-60 minutes to marinade.

To cook in the oven

• Preheat the oven to 390°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment or foil.
• Transfer the chicken wings to the lined baking sheet and bake for 15 minutes, then turn each one over with tongs and bake for a further 5 minutes or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).

To cook in the air fryer

• If you are baking the wings in an air fryer, you will need to preheat it for 5 minutes to 390F. Then lay the wings in the air fryer basket in a single layer (you may need to cook in batches so as not to overcrowd the basket). Bake at 400°F/200°C for 15 minutes.
• Use tongs to turn each wing over and bake for another 7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through (internal temperature reaches 165°F).

To finish

• Put the hot cooked wings into a bowl, pour over the melted butter, and add the grated parmesan. Toss to coat each piece with Parmesan and butter. Serve the wings right away.
