So many people are looking for quick and easy dinners – it doesn’t matter if you are a stay-at-home-mum juggling dinner and the witching hours or if you are a working mum racing home to try and get something on the table as quick as possible…this is the recipe for you! Heck, you could be a Dad looking for some inspiration or you don’t even need to be a parent at all. Some people call it a ‘sheet-pan-dinner’, others call it a ‘tray-bake’ – I call it a great dinner option.
The other great thing I love about a ‘sheet-pan’ dinner or a ‘tray-bake’ is that it creates minimal washing up.
When I saw the kitchen hack of adding a layer of baking paper underneath your ingredients – I thought ‘WINNER’. This just made the minimal washing up that I had, 10 times easier!
Another awesome kitchen hack I love is that balancing a wooden spoon across a pot of water keeps it from boiling over. Do you have any awesome kitchen hacks that you would like to share?
CHICKEN AND CHICKEN ‘SHEET PAN’ DINNER
1 red onion
4 medium potatoes
2 cloves of garlic
1 lemon
400 grams of chickpeas
4 chicken thigh fillets
10 grams of tarragon
1 tbsp of sweet chilli sauce
1 tbsp of honey
250 grams of cherry tomatoes
100 grams of greek yoghurt
1 tsp of sumac
1 tbsp of olive oil
sea salt
Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Line a baking dish with baking paper {yay for minimal washing up}.
Arrange the chicken, onion slices, garlic slices, lemon zest, potato pieces, half of the tarragon sprigs and the chick peas on the baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and roast for 20 minutes.
Combine the lemon juice, sweet chilli sauce and honey in a bowl. Season with salt.
Remove the baking tray from the oven and drizzle the honey mixture over the chicken. Add the tomatoes to the tray and roast for a further 10 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through and the chicken is golden. Rest for 5 minutes.
Combine the yoghurt, sumac and remaining tarragon. Drizzle over the chicken to serve.
