Chicken wings make a perfect snack, starter or light meal – the dip tastes great with wings and vegetable sticks, too.
Serves: 3-4 as a starter Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 35 minutes
You’ll need
For the chicken
- 4 tbsp tomato purée
- 4 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp mustard
- ½ tsp chilli flakes (optional)
- 10 chicken wings
For the dip
- 5 spring onions, roughly chopped
- 3 celery stalks, roughly chopped
- 100g sour cream
- 100g crème fraîche
- 75g mild blue cheese
- 1tsp Worcestershire sauce
To serve
- Extra celery sticks and little gem leaves cut in half vertically
Method
- Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan.
- Combine all of the chicken sauce ingredients in a small pan and bubble for a few minutes until it becomes thick. Put the chicken wings into a dish and pour the sauce over, toss well so the chicken is completely coated. Tip into a roasting dish and cook for 35-40 minutes, turning and basting twice during cooking.
- While the chicken is cooking whizz together all of the dip ingredients in a blender until combined but not completely smooth. Taste and season. Chill in the fridge until ready to serve.
- When the chicken is cooked, transfer it to a serving platter with a bowl of blue cheese sauce and some celery sticks and Little Gem wedges for dipping.
