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!
