Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
- Line 2 large baking trays with parchment paper
- Pull out a large non-stick frying pan & a small bowl
Roast the veg & chicken
- Dice the courgettes and peppers into 2cm chunks. Cut each onion into 8 wedges
- Place the veg onto a lined baking tray. Toss with 1 tbsp oil, half the Italian herbs and a pinch of salt and pepper
- Lay the chicken thighs flat onto the other lined baking tray, drizzle with the remaining Italian herbs, 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Add both trays to the oven and roast for 16-18 mins, until the veg is golden and the chicken is cooked through
Finish the prep
- Meanwhile, in the small bowl, combine the sundried tomato paste and the red pepper tapenade. Season with salt and pepper
- Roughly chop the olives. Finely chop the parsley
Fry the gnocchi
- Heat the non-stick frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the gnocchi and cook for 4-5 mins, tossing regularly, until golden. Remove from the heat. Season with salt
Bring everything together
- Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear
- Once cooked, shred the chicken using two forks
- Add the roast veg, shredded chicken, sundried tomato mixture, olives and parsley to the gnocchi pan. Toss to coat well. Season to taste
Plate up
- Serve the chicken gnocchi between bowls. Garnish with the walnuts
