1 large red onion, sliced into wedges
2 Waitrose & Partners peaches, sliced into wedges
8 British chicken thighs
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar glaze
300g cooked beetroot, drained and sliced into wedges
2 tbsp olive oil
250g sourdough bread (crusts on), torn into bite-sized chunks
90g rocket

Preheat the oven to 190°C, gas mark 5. Put the onion and peach wedges in a large roasting tin (about 33 x 22cm). Put the chicken pieces on top, season and brush with 1½ tbsp balsamic glaze.
In another, small roasting tin, toss together the beetroot, 1 tbsp oil, and remaining ½ tbsp balsamic glaze. Put both tins in the oven; cook for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the temperature to 200˚C, gas mark 6.
Nestle the torn bread into the trays and drizzle with the remaining 1 tbsp oil, then return to the oven for 20 minutes. When golden, tip everything into a large salad bowl, toss through the rocket leaves and serve.
