Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the onion, pepper, potatoes and oil in a non-stick roasting tin and toss everything together. Roast for 15 mins while you rub the chicken with the lime zest, garlic, paprika and thyme. Take the veg from the oven, stir, then snuggle the chicken thighs among the veg, covering them with some of the onions so they don’t dry out as it roasts for 40 mins.

  • step 2

    As you approach the end of the cooking time, mix 200ml boiling water with the bouillon powder. Take the roasting tin from the oven, add the broccoli to the tin, and pour over the hot stock followed by the lime juice, then quickly cover with the foil and put back in the oven for 10 more mins until the broccoli is just tender.

Absolutely delicious but probs doesn’t need the juice of a whole lime. Half is ample.

I rated this recipe 5* BUT there is something you must do to reach this level : make an oil rub with the dry rub ingredients, the chicken will have a lot more flavour. I did the dry version and the oil version, believe me, using a little bit of oil makes a real difference !

Can I adapt this for an air fryer?

We really enjoyed this meal. I added extra veg - sweet potato, carrots & tomatoes. Looking through the recipes, I’m not sure the nutritional content is correct. How does it contain 4g of saturated fat per person?

Have made this many times now, various veg, whatever I have, most of the times the long stem broccoli, but lovely meal every time!
