Background

This hearty Italian chicken and beans traybake is perfect for midweek family meals or weekend laid-back dinner parties. The preparations only take a few minutes, then the oven does the rest of the job. Serve it with a mash or fresh bread and a crispy salad.

Ingredients

4 whole chicken legs (or 8 mixed drumsticks & thighs)
1 tsp olive oil
4 cloves of garlic
5 sprigs of thyme
1 can of white beans
150g cherry tomatoes
1 red chilli
100 ml white wine
1 small handful of parsley, chopped
½ lemon, zested

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 180°C.
Arrange the chicken pieces in a large baking tray, rub them with oil, then season with salt and pepper.
Slightly crush the garlic (keeping the skin on) with a knife.
Scatter the garlic and thyme around the meat.
Bake for 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, discard the seeds of the chilli, then slice it into thin strips. Drain the beans.
Scatter the chilli, beans and tomatoes around the chicken. Pour over the wine, then bake for another 20 minutes or so.
When the chicken is golden brown and cooked through properly, discard the garlic skins and thyme stalks.
Serve with the lemon zest and the chopped parsley scattered on top.
