Easy chicken dinner

Hi everyone

Often I want an easy recipe for chicken pieces.  A few ingredients and off we go. This recipe uses drums or boned chicken thighs skin on. Slices of orange or if you want to be fancy preserved lemon peel make the taste of the dish fresh and yummy

Ingredients

12 chicken legs or 8 boned chicken thighs skin on
2 oranges halved and sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves of garlic sliced
3 tablespoons of runny honey - (warm normal honey as an alternative)
1 tablespoon wholegrain mustard
Juice of a lime or lemon
Juice of an orange - when I haven't had orange Ive actually used orange cordial concentrate

Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Place the chicken (thighs skin side up) in an oven dish with the orange slices.
Mix the rest of the ingredients in a jar and our over the chicken and orange. Roast for half an hour. Pull out and turn the chicken and baste it. Cook again for another 15 to 30 mins until golden and cooked through.

Eat with a yummy green salad and mash or couscous.  Enjoy :)
