ingredients

• 2 garlic gloves
• 1 medium-sized broccoli
• 250g frozen peas
• 1 lemon
• 1⁄2 bunch fresh parsley

Method

• Preheat the oven to 180°c/350°F/gas 4.
  Firstly season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper, then fry until golden brown in a large frying pan with 1tsp of oil. Once the chicken is evenly coloured, place on a separate plate to cool until required later.
• Chop the bacon into small pieces and add to the same pan used for the chicken thighs, frying with 1 tsp oil until crispy.
• Peel the onions and garlic and finely chop before adding to the pan, reducing the heat to low to soften, being careful not to colour. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop the new potatoes and add to the pan, stirring gently for 2-3 minutes. Transfer to a baking tray if the pan is not oven-proof.
• Take the chicken thighs and place on top of the potatoes and bake in the oven for 25 minutes
• Chop up the broccoli and cook in boiling water with a pinch of salt 5 minutes before the chicken is cooked.
• Remove the chicken and potatoes from the oven and stir in the broccoli and frozen peas.
• Finish with the zest and juice of the lemon and freshly chopped parsley.
