MARINATED CHICKEN WITH MUSTARD AND THYME

I make this recipe about twice a month. It's so simple and yet so moreish!! It takes the same time to cook so I put the chicken and potatoes in a fan-forced oven, but in different baking dishes. 😋😍

INGREDIENTS:

3 Tbsp lemon juice

3 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp Dijon mustard

1 tsp finely chopped garlic

1 tsp thyme (fresh better)

salt and freshly ground pepper

METHOD

Put the lemon juice, olive oil, Dijon mustard, garlic and thyme in a large bowl. Season the chicken with salt and pepper.

Add the chicken pieces and toss to coat the pieces in the mixture, then marinate in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours.

I usually don't have time to marinate the chicken for two hours, so I just put the marinade on the chicken and straight in the oven. It's really good!

Put the chicken in a ceramic baking tray roast them in a preheated oven until cooked, about 45 minutes. Turn it over after 30 minutes. 

Serve with the Roast new potatoes with lemon and rosemary.

Serves 4

Make sure you pour some of the juices on top of the chicken. It's so tasty you want to lick your fingers.....
