Crispy Chicken & Tenderstem Tray Bake With Rosemary Sauce
  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7, then take your chicken out of the fridge, open the packet and let it air.

  2. Chop your waxy potatoes into quarters.

  3. Peel and quarter your shallot[s].

  4. Strip half your rosemary leaves from their stems and chop them roughly (save the reserved rosemary for later!), discard the stems.

  5. Add the chopped waxy potatoes to one side of a baking tray (or two!) and season with a generous pinch of salt and pepper.

  6. Add your chicken thighs to the other side of the baking tray[s].

  7. Add a generous drizzle of vegetable oil and sprinkle the chopped rosemary all over.

  8. Put the baking tray[s] in the oven for an initial 10 min or until the potatoes and chicken start to brown.

  9. While the chicken and potatoes are cooking, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a small knob of butter and a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-low heat.

  10. Once hot, add the reserved rosemary (stems and all) to the pan and cook for 7-8 min or until fragrant.

  11. Once the butter has infused, remove and discard the rosemary – this is your infused rosemary butter.

  12. Meanwhile, combine your mayo with your white wine vinegar in a bowl.

  13. Add the infused rosemary butter to the bowl with a grind of black pepper and stir it all together – this is your rosemary butter sauce.

  14. Set aside until serving.

  15. Chop your Tenderstem broccoli in half.

  16. Once the chicken has had an initial 10 min, remove the tray[s] from the oven and top the potatoes with the halved Tenderstem broccoli and shallot quarters.

  17. Return the tray[s] to the oven for a further 10-12 min or until the broccoli is tender and the chicken is cooked through (no pink meat!).

  18. Once done, remove the tray[s] from the oven and mix everything together in the chicken juices – this is your crispy chicken & Tenderstem tray bake.

  19. Serve the crispy chicken & Tenderstem tray bake with the rosemary butter sauce drizzled all over.
