Pat dry the wings and add them to a mixing bowl. Combine with 3 tbsp oil and 1 tbsp baking powder. Season with to-taste salt, 1 tsp pepper, 1 tbsp smoked paprika powder, 1 tbsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp onion powder. Mix well and let marinate for 2-3 hours or overnight.
Prepare the wet batter: In another bowl, combine 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup cornstarch, 1/2 cup rice flour (or additional all-purpose flour), to-taste salt, 1 tsp black pepper, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, 1 tbsp garlic powder, and 1 tsp onion powder. Whisk in 1 1/4 cups of sparkling water or cold water until a smooth, thick batter forms.
Heat oil to 365°F for deep frying. Coat the marinated chicken wings in the wet batter and carefully drop 4-5 wings into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan. Fry for 6-8 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Make the Garlic Parmesan sauce: Melt 1/3 cup butter in a pan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant.
In a bowl, combine 1/3 cup kewpie mayonnaise, to-taste salt, 1 tsp red chili flakes, 1/2 tsp black pepper, 1 tsp smoked paprika, and 1 tbsp finely chopped parsley. Add the garlic butter mixture and 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
Toss the fried chicken wings in the garlic parmesan sauce before serving. Garnish with more Parmesan cheese if desired.
