Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a small bowl

Roast the potato

  • Quarter the potatoes lengthways
  • Place on the lined baking tray and toss with 1 tsp oil, half the paprika & oregano and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 10 mins, until starting to soften

Add the rest

  • Meanwhile, thinly slice the pepper. Peel the onion and cut into 8 wedges
  • After 10 mins, add the pepper, onion and chicken thighs to the potato tray. Toss with 1 tsp oil, the remaining paprika & oregano and a pinch of salt and pepper. Roast for 18-20 mins, until cooked through and golden

Make the romesco sauce

  • Meanwhile, crumble half the feta into the small bowl. Use the back of a fork to mash. Add the yoghurt and red pepper tapenade and mash to combine. Season with pepper

Time to toss

  • Check your chicken is cooked through by inserting a skewer into the thickest part of the meat; the juices should run clear
  • When ready, allow the chicken to rest for a few mins
  • Thinly slice the chicken, then return to the tray with the rocket and red wine vinegar. Toss to combine

Serve up

  • Use the back of a spoon to spread two thirds of the romesco sauce onto plates. Top with the chicken and veg. Dollop over the rest of the sauce and crumble over the remaining feta
