Ingredients

  • 4 bone-in chicken thighs, skin on
  • 2 courgettes, sliced
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 200g cherry tomatoes
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and cracked black pepper

Method

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 200°C.

  2. 2

    Toss vegetables with 1 tbsp olive oil, garlic, and oregano. Spread on a baking tray.

  3. 3

    Rub chicken thighs with remaining olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Place chicken on top of the vegetables.

  5. 5

    Roast 35 minutes until chicken skin is crispy and juices run clear.

Tip: Chicken thighs have more iron and zinc than breast meat — and stay juicier during roasting.
