Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Boil a half-full kettle
- Pull out a medium ovenproof dish, 2 medium bowls, a measuring jug & a grater
Roast the potatoes & marinate the chicken
- Cut the potatoes into 2cm wedges. Place the wedges onto the lined baking tray, sprinkle with half the oregano and toss with 1 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, until soft and golden
- Finely chop or grate the garlic. Halve the lemon
- In a medium bowl, combine the sundried tomato paste, garlic, remaining oregano, a squeeze of lemon juice and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken and turn to coat
Add the veg
- Cut the onion into 1cm wedges. Dice the courgette into 2cm chunks
- Dissolve the stock powder in the jug with 100ml boiling water (50ml for 1 person)
- Add the veg to the medium ovenproof dish and toss with 1 tsp oil, a pinch of salt and pepper. Lay the chicken flat on top and roast for 16 mins
Finish roasting
- Meanwhile, finely slice the olives. Halve the tomatoes
- After 16 mins, pour the stock mixture into the ovenproof dish, ensuring the chicken thighs is flat on the top, and cook for a further 6-8 mins, until the chicken is cooked through
Build the salad
- To the other medium bowl, combine a good squeeze of lemon juice with 1 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the olives and tomatoes
- When everything's ready, toss the rocket and pumpkin seeds through the dressing
Plate up
- Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear
- Share the veg between plates, topped with the chicken. Serve the wedges and salad alongside
- Spoon over any remaining sauce from the dish and serve with the remaining lemon, cut into wedges
