Number Of Ingredients 7

4 part-boned chicken breasts, skin on
1 lemon, juiced and zested
1 tbsp clear honey
1 tbsp olive oil
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tsp dried oregano
new potatoes and green salad, to serve

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Arrange the chicken in a layer, skin-side up, in a shallow ovenproof dish. Put all the remaining ingredients in a bowl and warm in the microwave or a small pan for 1 min. Stir everything together and pour over the chicken.
  • Roast the chicken for 30-40 mins, basting every 10 mins. The juices will gradually thicken and give the chicken a shiny coating. Leave the chicken to stand for 5 mins before serving with new potatoes and a green salad.
