Lemon chicken ingredients

To make this recipe for 4 people you’ll need the following ingredients, all of which are gluten free and free from the top 10 allergens:

• 500G (2 large) skinless chicken breast fillets
• 3 teaspoons of olive oil
• 1 clove of garlic (finely chopped)
• 2 teaspoons of honey
• 1 Tablespoon of fresh rosemary
• 500g of potatoes, cut into wedges
• 2 lemons (1 for zest and juice, one to cut into wedges)
• salt and freshly ground black pepper to season
• 250g cherry tomatoes (preferably on the truss)
• 2 Tablespoons roughly chopped fresh parsley to garnish

We often leave out the garlic when cooking for people with food intolerances, and the recipe is just as delicious without it. You can always add extra herbs for more flavour.

Method

Preheat your oven to hot – 220C / 425F.

Slice chicken breasts in half horizontally with a sharp knife to make 2 fillets from each breast.

Place the chicken and potato wedges in a medium baking dish. I prefer to use ceramic baking dishes (or lasagne or roasting pans) as they are really easy to clean and also look appealing when serving straight from the pan.

Coat the chicken and potatoes with the olive oil, honey, zest of one lemon and rosemary.

I like to use a zester to add the lemon zest straight to the dish. Then halve the zested lemon to use for juice using a citrus press and set aside.

Cut the second lemon into wedges and add wedges to the dish amongst the chicken and potatoes. Season with a little salt and freshly ground pepper.

Place the dish in the oven and bake for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, add 1/2 cup of lemon juice to the dish and add the cherry tomatoes on top. You can either add the tomatoes individually, or I like to place a whole truss on the top of the chicken. Bake for a further 10 to 12 minutes.

Remove from the oven, scatter the chopped parsley over the dish and serve.

For extra vegetables, serve with some steamed asparagus, beans or a simple salad.
