Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a large flameproof roasting tin, then fry the chicken, skin side down, and the potatoes for 8 mins or until the chicken skin is crisp and golden. Turn the chicken and potatoes, then continue to cook for a further minute.

  • step 2

    Add the thyme and garlic, then stir to coat everything.

  • step 3

    Roast everything for 15 mins until the potatoes are soft. Remove the tray from the oven and throw in the peppers, orange segments and olives and roast for 5 mins more until the chicken and potatoes are completely cooked. To serve, bring the tray to the table and let everyone help themselves.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKING IT DIFFERENT

Use lemons instead of oranges for a

sharper flavour.

Don’t eat meat? Use white fish fillets instead

of chicken. Simply start with the potatoes and

add the fish with the peppers and tomatoes.

These changes make perfect sense and will be trying tonight.

I don't think the oranges add much to this dish - or perhaps they need to cook longer for the flavours to merge? otherwise, a nice tasty dish that's easy to prepare. I used celeriac instead of potatoes, which worked well

question

Why cannot I print of the recipes anymore? My computer is not near my kitchen. I have arthritis in my hands and it's very difficult for me to write down the recipes.

This is a well used recipe in my home, great for a tasty and easy dinner. No one in the family likes olives but we still add them for the flavour and it's great. One great thing about this recipe is that you can tailor it to different people's tastes. For example, I add aubergine for myself and…
