Pot-roast chicken
Perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon, this one-pot roast chicken is succulent and tender once ready to serve. Throw in your typical Sunday roast veg and you've got a winner of a meal on your hands!
- Rub the chicken with salt and pepper. Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish over a high heat and brown the chicken on all sides for 8-10 mins.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the stock, onion, garlic, bay leaves, celery, chorizo and red pepper around the chicken. Bring to the boil, then cover and simmer for 1 hr-1 hr 10 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the juices run clear when a skewer is inserted into the thickest part of the bird.
- Remove the chicken from the dish and set aside to cool slightly. Add the spinach and parsley to the dish, stir until the leaves are wilted, then spoon into shallow bowls. Carve the chicken and divide between the bowls. Serve with roasted sweet potato, if you like.
