Ingredients
- 500 g chicken thigh cutlets, bone in, skin on
- extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- salt and black pepper, to taste
- 150 g Kalamata olives
- 2–3 sprigs oregano (or a good pinch of dried oregano)
- 250 g cherry tomatoes on the vine
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges
- crusty bread, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190°C.
- Place the chicken thighs in a baking dish, drizzle with oil and season with a little salt. Top with the olives, oregano and cherry tomatoes (make sure you get most on top of the chicken as this will stop the chicken from drying out).
- Drizzle with another few good lashings of olive oil and squeeze a few quarters of lemon over everything. Pop the rest of the lemon wedges, including squeezed ones into the pan. Season with a few grinds of black pepper.
- Bake for 40 minutes or until the chicken is browned in the uncovered parts. The tomatoes should look nice and mushy. Remove from the oven and let sit for about 5 minutes, then serve with crusty bread.
