Smoky & Spicy Chicken Sweet Potato Traybake with Feta and Chimichurri Dressing

This is a staple midweek meal for us. You can buy all the ingredients on your way home, it’s quick, easy and completely delicious. Smoky, spicy chicken thighs are roasted in a mixture of spices before adding sweet potatoes, peppers and tenderstem broccoli for sweetness, colour and texture. A fresh and herbaceous chimichurri adds a citrus zing while salty, creamy feta finishes everything off. You can use thighs with or without the bone if you’re short on time, but the bone does help them stay lovely and moist and tender. Plus, its all roasted in the same tray so washing up is minimal - ideal.

Baharat and Orange Chicken Thighs with Saffron Jewelled Rice, Dukkah Roasted Carrots and Dill Tahini Yoghurt

This is one of my favourite recipes I’ve made recently and would make a great alternative to your Sunday roast. The flavours are also quite festive and Christmassy. The spiced chicken thighs with the sweetness of the orange and pomegranate glaze were so tasty and the rice was buttery and rich with saffron, nuts and dried fruits. The carrots were roasted in a mixture of spices and topped with pistachios, dukkah and fruity pomegranates. The creamy dill tahini yoghurt underneath really made the dish - this is definitely a side that could go with anything.
