Ingredients

  • 8 Chicken thighs-on the bone, skin on

  • 2 tbsp Olive oil

  • 1 Lemon-zested and cut into wedges

  • 4 Rosemary sprigs

  • 4 Spring Onions

  • 1 small pack Tarragon

  • 450 gram Asparagus spears-trimmed

  • 2 Zucchinis-thickly sliced on the diagonal

  • 250 gram Snow Peas-thickly sliced on the diagonal

  • 100 gram Feta-crumbled

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 200 degrees. In a large shallow roasting tin, place the chicken thighs. Season and toss with the olive oil, lemon zest and wedges, shallots, rosemary, and tarragon.
  • Arrange the chicken thighs, skin-side up, and roast for 40-50 mins. Make sure that the skin is crisp and golden.
  • Meanwhile, bring a large pan of water to boil. Cook the asparagus for 3 minutes or until tender. Add the zucchinis and snow peas for the final minute.
  • Drain the veggies and toss in with the chicken. Make sure it coats well with the cooking juices. Crumble over the feta and serve. Enjoy!
