Spice Up Your Chicken…
Chicken, broccoli and rice; it’s the bodybuilder standard. Whilst it does do the job, it gets a little boring. By simply adding a mix of spices, more veggies and a little finesse you can definitely spice up that meal prep or just a meal for the family. This recipe is from episode 5 of my Rebuild vlog series on YouTube.
Servings: 6
Prep Time: 10 Minutes
Cook Time: 50 Minutes
Bulk Ingredients:
- 6 free range chicken thighs
- 2 red onions, diced
- 2 bell peppers, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, diced
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Olive oil
Spices:
- 3 tsp cumin
- 2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp oregano
- 0.5-2 tsp cayenne pepper
- Salt & pepper
Method:
Preheat your oven to 160ËšC (320ËšF).
Remove chicken thighs from the refrigerator and place on a roasting tray 30 minutes prior to cooking.
Dice the onion, pepper and garlic into 1-3cm chunks and spread evenly over the roasting tray. Cover everything with a dash of olive oil.
Combine the spices in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Sprinkle evenly over the chicken and veggies then top with salt & pepper. Place the tray in the oven and roast for 45-55 minutes.
Remove the tray and serve with the roasted veggies, lime and coriander rice and additional veggies to taste.
That’s it, enjoy!
Storage:
The chicken will keep fresh in a refridgerator for 2-3 days.
Awesome recipe! Going to make this with chicken breasts 🙂
Great recipe, nice twist on a chicken tray bake. I would be tempted to use a chipotle chili to add some smokiness. Can’t wait to try
Sounds like a great addition 🙂
