Ingredients
- 600g new potatoes
- 4 garlic cloves
- 8 free-range chicken thighs
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 courgettes
- 200g cherry vine tomatoes

Method
- Heat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C fan/gas 7. Halve the new potatoes and peel the garlic cloves. Put the chicken thighs in a large roasting tin, then arrange the potatoes and garlic around them. Drizzle over the olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then roast for 40-45 minutes.
