GOOD EASY BAKED CHICKEN RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Tip a couple of tbsp olive oil into a small roasting tin. Add the lemon slices and then sit the chicken on top. Rub the top of each chicken breast with a little olive oil and then season well. Squeeze over the juice from the remaining lemon half and put the thyme sprigs between the chicken breasts.
• Roast for 20-25 mins until the chicken is cooked through – check by poking a knife into the centre of each breast to make sure the juices run clear. Rest for 5 mins before serving.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan over a high heat. Season the chicken and fry, skin-side down, for 5 mins until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
• Tip the onion and pepper into the pan and fry for 10 mins until softened. Add the chilli and garlic, and fry for another minute. Pour in the wine, then simmer for a few mins until the liquid is reduced by half. Tip in the tomatoes, oregano, stock, spinach and sugar. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 mins. Season.
• Pour the sauce into a medium roasting tin. Nestle in the chicken and bake for 35-40 mins until cooked through. Meanwhile, cook the pasta following pack instructions. Scatter the extra oregano over the chicken and serve with the pasta.
