Jim Moore’s Easter Lunch Inspiration – Sheet Pan Chicken

Jim Moore’s Easter Lunch Inspiration - Sheet Pan Chicken
Jim Moore’s Easter Lunch Inspiration - Sheet Pan Chicken
Chicken Spatchcocked or split down into individual pieces. Bone-in, skin-on chicken is best for super juicy chicken but you could also use skinless breasts or chicken thighs. Vegetables: really any vegetable will work, in this one I’m using a combination of courgette, bell pepper, red onion, and tomatoes. But you can add or leave out whatever you fancy! Serving options - Roast potatoes. Wine Pairing - Fleurie Andre Goichot 75CL - ’The natural thought is white wine with white meat but don’t rule out lighter reds with roasted chicken. The light, fragrant and silky character of this Fluerie is a great match for the herby Mediterranean flavours in this Chicken dish, all enjoyed alfresco on a sunny day.’

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1 Lemon juiced
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 2 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Salt flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 full chicken
  • 1 Courgette sliced
  • 1 Yellow bell pepper chopped into 1-inch pieces
  • 1/2 Large red onion sliced into wedges
  • 1 punnet cherry tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup Olives optional
  • 1/4 cup Feta Cheese optional

Method

  1. Chicken Spatchcocked or split down into individual pieces. Bone-in, skin-on chicken is best for super juicy chicken but you could also use skinless breasts or chicken thighs. Vegetables: really any vegetable will work, in this one I’m using a combination of courgette, bell pepper, red onion, and tomatoes. But you can add or leave out whatever you fancy!
  2. Once you’ve got all your veggies chopped up, the rest comes easy!
  3. Preheat the BBQ or oven to 220°C then get the chicken ready for marinating.
  4. To make the marinade. Whisk together the oil, lemon juice, garlic, oregano, thyme, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
  5. Marinating time! Place the chicken in a bowl and pour ⅔ of the marinade on top. Use your hands to toss the chicken until it’s well coated. Then let it sit for about 10 to 15 minutes.
  6. Prep the vegetables. Spread the courgette , bell pepper, red onion, and tomatoes onto the baking sheet, drizzle the remaining marinade on top, and toss it all together.
  7. Cook time. Place the chicken onto the baking sheet, in between the veggies, and bake for 30 minutes.
  8. Remove the baking sheet from the BBQ / oven, sprinkle the olives and feta cheese on top, then place it back in the BBQ / oven for another 10 to 15 minutes, or until the chicken is golden and cooked through - until the chicken hits 75°c internal.
