Simple Stuffed Chicken Thighs

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 chopped onion
  • 2 crushed garlic cloves
  • 75g fresh breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 2 tsp chopped thyme leaves
  • 1 lemon, zest and half juiced
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 6 chicken thighs, skin left on, bones removed

  • Preheat the oven to 180C. Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion and garlic for 5 mins to soften. Mix the breadcrumbs, herbs, lemon juice and zest to combine, season well, and stir in the egg yolk and onion and garlic mixture.
