Ingredients
8 to 10 chicken thighs, skinless with bone in
10 Agria potatoes, peeled and cut in halves
2 cups fresh tomatoes (or 2 tins chopped tomatoes)
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons capers (optional)

Fresh Herb Garnish Ingredients

1 handful fresh mint, chopped
Zest and juice of a lime
Method
Preheat oven to 180˚C
Par-boil potatoes for 10 minutes or until rough around the edges and drain
In a large bowl combine all ingredients except chicken and potato
Arrange chicken in a roasting dish and pour over the sauce. Place the potatoes around the chicken, leaving them half out of the sauce so they crisp up
Bake for an hour or until chicken is cooked through, cut one in half to be sure
Mix all garnish ingredients together and pile on top of chicken before serving
NB: We used a mix of tinned and cherry tomatoes
Keeping cooking with chicken safe
Cross contamination can be a major cause of food-borne illnesses. To keep chicken safe for the whole family when cooking with it you should make sure you:
- Wash your hands thoroughly in hot, soapy water before you start
- Keep plates and utensils for raw and cooked chicken separate
- Wash and dry knives and chopping boards thoroughly in hot soapy water
- Cook poultry well until juices run clear, not pink
