1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour seasoned with salt and black pepper
2 eggs, beaten
12 whole chicken wings, split at the joint
Ranch dressing or other sauce for serving, optional
How to make it
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Line a baking sheet with foil and coat with nonstick spray.
Using 2 shallow plates, combine the bread crumbs, cheese and 2 teaspoons black pepper on one and place the seasoned flour on the other.
Place the beaten eggs in a bowl.
Dredge each chicken wing in the seasoned flour, shake off any excess, dip in the egg mixture and then roll in the bread crumbs -- patting the crumb mixture to adhere.
Set on the prepared baking sheet.
Repeat with all the chicken wings.
Spray the chicken wings lightly with nonstick cooking spray.
Bake for 40 minutes or until the wings are cooked through.
Remove from oven and serve with dipping sauce, if desired.
