What you'll need

  • Small ramekins — Individual portions for dips, baked eggs, and small bites.
  • Pastry brush — Brush egg wash or oil on dough without tearing it.

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chicken wings with avocado oil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
  3. Toss the wings thoroughly to ensure even coating, then spread them in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Roast for 40–45 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the skin is golden and crisp and an instant-read thermometer inserted at the joint reads 165°F.
  5. While the wings roast, warm the melted butter and minced garlic in a small saucepan over low heat for 1–2 minutes to mellow the garlic, then whisk in the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.
  6. Remove the wings from the oven and immediately toss them in the garlic-parmesan butter until fully coated.
  7. Serve warm to maintain the buttery texture of the garlic glaze.

FAQ

What makes avocado oil a better choice over seed oils?

Avocado oil is richer in monounsaturated fats and antioxidants compared to most seed oils, making it a healthier option for cooking.

How does grass-fed butter differ from regular butter in terms of nutrition?

Grass-fed butter contains higher amounts of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and omega-3 fatty acids, along with more vitamins and minerals compared to butter from grain-fed cattle.
