Ingredients
- 2 essential Waitrose British Chicken Legs
- 1 pack/s Sweet kingdom carrot, butternut squash, parsnip & red onion
- 1 pack/s Cooks’ Ingredients Unwaxed Lemons
- 1 pack/s Pentland Brig kale
Method
Preheat the oven to 200ºC, gas mark 6. Put the chicken into a medium roasting tray, skin-side up. Drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, season and roast for 10 minutes.
Remove the butter from the roasting vegetables, then tumble them and the rosemary from the pack in the chicken juices. Season. Roast for 35-40 minutes until the chicken is golden, with no pink meat and the juices run clear. Add the lemon zest and juice to the tray for the final 5 minutes of cooking time.
Melt the butter in a large pan, then tear in the kale, leaving out any large stems and toss for 3-5 minutes until tender. Serve with the chicken and vegetables.
