Citrus chicken & veg for 2

Yield: 2

Author: Lydia Nuttall

Wonderful citrus flavour, mixed with the simple seasoning of salt and pepper, takes this chicken and vegetable dish to a new level.

Ingredients

Citrus Chicken and Vegetables

• 4 small chicken thigh fillets - skin on
• 4 baby potatoes - small wedges
• 12 cherry tomatoes - halved
• 1 lemon - quartered
• 1 small red onion - thin wedges
• salt, pepper, olive oil

Instructions

1. Heat a small amount of olive oil in a non-stick pan and sear the chicken on skin side for 5 minutes.
2. Add the potatoes and onion, and turn over the chicken. Cook for another 15 minutes, turning the potatoes and onion a couple of times so that they cook evenly.
3. Add the tomatoes and lemon pieces and cook for another 5 minutes.
4. Season well with salt and pepper - don't be tempted to do this before now - at this stage it adds the most oomph.

You can use skinless thigh fillets instead. Or thigh cutlets. Both work well
