Fiery Bourbon Chicken Wings With Blue Cheese Dip
Marinate the chicken in the sauce for a few hours or overnight if you have time.
- Serves: 4
- Preparation time: 5 minutes, plus marinating time
- Cooking time: about 40 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 kg chicken wings
- 250 ml bottle Newman's Own Fiery Bourbon BBQ Sauce
For the dip:
- 125 g soft cream cheese
- 4 tablespoons Newman's Own Blue Cheese Dressing
- 2 spring onions, chopped
Selection of crudités to serve, such as peppers, carrots and celery
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C, Gas Mark 6.
- Place the wings in a shallow roasting tin and pour over the sauce, turn to evenly coat the chicken in the sauce. You can do this a few hours before or overnight in the fridge, so the chicken marinates in the sauce if you have time.
- Cook in the oven for 20 minutes, then remove from the oven, turn over the wings and baste with the sauce.
- Return to the oven and cook for a further 20 minutes, until the wings are sticky and slightly charred. If you prefer you can remove the wings from the oven 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time and place on a hot barbecue for 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile in a bowl, beat together the cream cheese with the blue cheese dressing and most of the spring onions. Transfer to a serving bowl and garnish with the remaining spring onions.
- Arrange the chicken wings on a large platter and serve with the blue cheese dipping sauce and crudités.
