HIT AND RUN TRAY-BAKED CHICKEN


This recipe is so quick to prepare; chop the veg, chuck everything in a baking dsh and leave it in the oven to cook. A great weeknight recipe for when you're busy and if you're meal prepping for the week ahead!


Serves: 4 | Preparation Time: 1.5hrs


Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Quarter tomatoes and place in a large baking dish. 
  2. Peel the onions and cut into large chunks, then de-seed the capsicum and chop into large chunks. Add these to the baking tray with the garlic cloves, then place chicken thighs on top.
  3. Pick over the thyme leaves (if you’re in a rush you can put the whole stalk in), and sprinkle the paprika over. Add balsamic, oil, salt and pepper.
  4. Roast in the oven for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through. You can turn the chicken over halfway through the cooking process to baste in the juices a bit more. 


Serving suggestions:

  • With a leafy green salad and some mashed potato or crusty bread
  • Leftovers make a wonderful pasta sauce with some parmesan
