Peri Peri Chicken Thighs with Sweet Potato Wedges, Mangetout & Peas
A crowd-pleasing classic, we have coated tender free-range British chicken thighs in fiery peri peri spice, and roasted until beautifully golden. You'll serve it alongside vibrant sweet potato wedges and crunchy pan-fried mangetout and peas - for a pop of green. A dollop of garlic lemon yoghurt balances the heat. Delish!
Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
- Line 2 baking trays with parchment paper
- Pull out a large frying pan & a small bowl
Get the wedges on
- Cut the sweet potatoes into wedges. Place the wedges onto a lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
- Roast for 25-30 mins, until soft and golden
Prep the yoghurt & roast the chicken
- Halve the lemon
- In the small bowl, combine the yoghurt, half the garlic herb paste and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper
- Lay the chicken thighs flat onto the other lined baking tray and coat with the peri peri seasoning (use less for less heat). Drizzle with 1 tbsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for 16 mins, until cooked through
Greens time
- Heat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the mangetout and peas and cook for 3-4 mins, until soft. Season with salt and pepper
- Stir through the chilli flakes (for those who'd like more heat) and the remaining garlic herb paste. Cook for another 30 secs, season with salt and pepper, then remove from the heat
Plate up
- Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear
- Serve the peri peri chicken onto plates, with the wedges and greens alongside. Dollop over the yoghurt. Garnish with the remaining lemon, cut into wedges
