This is a cheeky twist on a classic caesar salad. The wings are the star, absorbing the flavours of the marinade, then gently crisping up thanks to the last-minute cheesy dusting and garlicky breadcrumbs at the end. It can be served individually or piled high for everyone to tuck in. And it’s surprisingly filling, so makes for a perfect springtime dinner just as it is.
