Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the chicken wings in a roasting tin, toss with the oil and season. Roast for 30 mins.
- In a bowl, combine the garlic, paprika, cider vinegar, hot pepper sauce and melted butter. Pour over the chicken and toss to coat. Return to the oven for a further 30 mins, turning halfway through, until cooked through and sticky, with no pink showing.
- Meanwhile, combine all the blue cheese sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
- To make the salad, whisk the oil and vinegar. Season. Put the remaining ingredients in a bowl and toss with the dressing. Serve the salad with the chicken and blue cheese sauce, with an extra drizzle of hot pepper sauce, to taste.
