Background

If you like chicken legs and want a simple, no-fuss yet tasty recipe - try this Cajun chicken bake! I made it with courgette & sweet potatoes but you can use other vegetables too - carrots, parsnips, squash, red peppers, beets, swede, fennel would work just as well.

Ingredients

8 chicken drumsticks and/or thighs (about 750g)
1 red onion, cut into chunks
1 courgette halved and cut into thick slices
500g sweet potatoes
1 handful of chopped walnuts
1 Tbsp Cajun seasoning
1 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp runny honey
Salt and pepper

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180C. Cut the onion into wedges, the courgette & sweet potatoes into chunks. Roughly chop the walnuts.
Put the chicken, vegetables and walnuts into a roasting tin. Season with salt and pepper.
Mix the Cajun seasoning, oil and honey together, then drizzle over the chicken and vegetables and, using a silicon brush, cover the chicken and vegetables evenly.
Roast for about 40 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.
Serve warm, perhaps with some green salad on the side.
