Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Mix the grated cheese and chopped parsley in a shallow dish. Mix the melted butter, garlic and hot sauce in a separate shallow dish. 
  2. Brush or dip the chicken thighs in the chilli garlic butter, then turn to coat in the cheese mixture. Transfer to a shallow roasting tin, then roast for 35 mins, or until golden, crisp and cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the sweetcorn cobettes to pack instructions, then add a pinch of paprika and a knob of butter, if you like, to each. Serve the sweetcorn alongside the Parmesan chicken with the house salad, drizzling over any juices from the tin.
