Preparation

    Portions: 4 x Adult or 2 x Adult and 3 x Children

    1. Preheat your oven to 180°C.

    2. Heat the oil in a deep, oven-proof frying pan that can fit the chicken in a single layer. Lightly brown the chicken for 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    3. Add the onion, peppers, dried herbs, garlic and chilli to the frying pan. Cook for 10 minutes until they soften, and the vegetables begin to brown.

    4. Add in the stock, tomatoes and tomato purée. Stir well. Bring the mixture to a boil, then return the chicken to the pan.

    5. Cover and bake for 20 minutes, then remove the lid and bake for a further 15-20 minutes.

    6. Once the chicken is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and sprinkle on some parsley.
