Ingredients

Method

  • 8 whole chicken thighs
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon, zest and juice
  • 2 sliced onions
  • 2 sliced garlic cloves
  • 3 chopped anchovy fillets
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 450ml chicken stock
  • 150g peas
  • 200g chopped long-stem broccoli
  • 2 tbsp quality green pesto
  • 10g basil leaves
  • Preheat a large casserole dish on the hob, then toss the chicken thighs in the oil, some seasoning and the lemon zest. Brown for 7 mins - skin-side down - until golden and crisp, then turn and cook for 5 mins on the other side. Remove from the casserole and set aside.
  • Toss the onions, garlic and anchovies into the casserole and cook for 5 mins, then stir in the lemon juice, stock and mustard. Bring to a simmer and return the chicken to the pan.
  • Add the peas and broccoli, then cover and cook for 7 mins. Spoon the pesto over the top of the chicken, then scatter with basil leaves and serve with crusty bread - easy!
