Method

Heat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Tip the lentils, tomatoes, spices, and stock into a baking dish about 20 x 30 x 7cm and stir well. Nestle in the chicken drumsticks, cover with foil and cook for 25 mins.
After 25 mins, remove the foil, increase the heat to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C and cook for another 15-20 mins until the lentils are tender and the chicken is cooked through and lightly golden. Cook the green beans following the pack instructions and serve alongside the lentil traybake. Top with sliced chilli if you like.
