- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated

Serving
- Transfer the wings to a serving platter. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve hot with your choice of dipping sauces.
Storage
- Store any leftover wings in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
