Method

  1. Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Put the potatoes on a large oven tray and lay the chicken thighs over the top. Scatter over the paprika and oregano and season.
  2. Nestle in the garlic and onion and scatter over the chorizo. Cook for 45 mins until the chicken is cooked through, and the chicken skin, potatoes and chorizo have crisped up. About 10-15 mins before the end of cooking, add the cherry tomatoes and 3 thyme sprigs.
  3. Strip the leaves from the remaining thyme sprig and chop, then sprinkle on top and serve with a baby leaf salad alongside.
