Baked Garlic & Parmesan Chicken Wings

Pre heat oven to 400 and line your baking dish with parchment paper generously spray with cooking spray. This is key otherwise your wings will stick to your pan.

2 lbs. chicken wings
4 cloves of minced garlic
1 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 package dry ranch dressing
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese (plus extra for garnish)
2 Tbsp corn starch
Minced Parsley for garnish

In a large bowl mix together the garlic, pepper, salt, olive oil, lemon juice, and powdered ranch dressing. Add wings and toss to coat. Sprinkle with corn starch and mix well. Add Parmesan and evenly coat.
Spread onto parchment paper baking pan and place in even layer. Sprinkle with more Parmesan if desired. (Yes please) Bake for 20 mins and then remove from oven to flip the wings to cook on other side. Bake an additional 15-20 minutes.
Remove from oven. Turn oven to Broil high. Broil wings for 4-6 until crispy.
Sprinkle with parsley and additional cheese and enjoy!

Here is my secret to perfect pork chops:
1) I like using bone in pork chops but you can use either. First thing you do is pour some lemon juice on both sides and let the excess drip off.
2) Dredge in a mixture of 1 cup Panko bread crumbs with Italian Seasoning and 1/4 Parmesan cheese. Make sure both sides are coated.
3) Cook in a pan on medium heat with olive oil and 2 Tbsp butter. Make sure their is enough oil to completely cover the bottom of the pan. Cook on both sides turning when golden brown. Put them on an oven proof dish and bake in a 350 oven for 10 minutes.
Enjoy!!!

These Blue Cheese Toasts are the perfect accompaniment to Ham and Navy Bean Soup. Slice some French bread and bake at 350 for 5 minutes. Mix 1/2 cup softened butter with 1/2 cup blue cheese crumbles. Remove bread from and let cool slightly. Spread blue cheese mixture evenly on each piece of bread and then broil on high until golden brown.
