Chicken with Lemon, Thyme and Fondant Potatoes

Method

Step One

Pre-heat the oven to 180°C, 350°F, gas mark 4.

Step Two

Peel the potatoes. Make each one into a disc. Do this by cutting a flat top and bottom to each potato. Then cut out a disc of potato with a pastry cutter. Cut off the sharp corners to make a nice disc shape.

Step Three

Melt the butter in a pan over a medium heat until it starts to foam. Place the potatoes in the pan and cook for about 5-6 minutes until golden on the bottom. When done turn over the potato and cook for the same time again.

Step Four

Add the prepared Bisto Chicken Bouillon. Add in the thyme sprigs, and season well.

Step Five

Cover with a lid or tin foil and place in the oven for 25-30 minutes, covered until the potato is cooked. Keep warm.

Step Six

While the potatoes are cooking, mix the olive oil and Bisto Bouillon together to form a paste. Then rub into the chicken. Place the chicken into an oven tray.

Step Seven

Add the lemon slices to the chicken, then roast, basting the chicken with the juices in the pan, until the chicken is cooked through. When the chicken is cooked remove from the tray.

Step Eight

Add the water to the pan, bring to the boil and whisk in the Bisto Gravy Granules Chicken. Once it thickens, strain to remove any bits, then serve with the cooked chicken, potatoes, and seasonal vegetables.
