The easy recipe is low fat, high in fibre and protein. There isn't much preparation involved for such a filling meal. I don't really recommend freezing this one as the chicken will become a little dry if it is re heated via microwave.

Description

The easy recipe is low fat, high in fibre and protein. There isn't much preparation involved for such a filling meal. I don't really recommend freezing this one as the chicken will become a little dry if it is re heated via microwave.

Instructions

1. 

   Preheat oven to 200°C. Heat half the oil in a large frying pan over high heat and fry shallots and potatoes for 5 minutes, until browned.

2. 

   Transfer to a large roasting tin and pour over stock and lemon juice. Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

3. 

   Meanwhile, score chicken with a sharp knife and rub with oregano and pepper.

4. 

   Add remaining oil to frying pan and fry chicken in 2 batches for 2–3 minutes per side, until evenly browned.

5. 

   Remove roasting tin from oven and nestle chicken in amongst potatoes (so they are sitting in the sauce). Return tin to oven and cook for a further 15 minutes until almost cooked. Stir peas into mixture and cook for a final 5 minutes.

6. In a small bowl, combine parsley, garlic and lemon zest. Scatter over stew and serve at once with steamed green beans
