Ingredients
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp honey
- 2 tbsp oil
- 1 tbsp garlic & ginger paste
- 8 skin-on chicken thighs
- 1 large head broccoli, cut into florets
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
- Rice, to serve (optional)
Method
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Mix the soy, honey, 1 tbsp of the oil and ½ tbsp garlic & ginger paste in a bowl. Pour over the chicken thighs and leave to marinate if you have time, but don’t worry if not – they will be delicious either way. Tip the chicken with all the marinade into a roasting tin, skin-side up. Cook for 45 mins until sticky and the skin is crispy.
- When the chicken has 15 mins left, start cooking the rice following pack instructions, if using, and heat the remaining oil in a frying pan. Add the remaining garlic & ginger paste, sizzle for 1 min, then tip in the broccoli along with a splash of water. Cover and cook for 10 mins until tender, then take the lid off, tip the sesame seeds into the pan and give everything a good toss around. Season. Serve with the chicken, and all the caramelised bits from the bottom of the tin.

Ingredients
- 2 tbsp cold-pressed rapeseed oil
- 1 onion, halved and thinly sliced
- 250g salad potatoes, cut into chunks
- 1 large red pepper, deseeded and chopped
- 1 courgette (200g), thickly sliced
- 2 tomatoes, chopped (150g)
- 2 large garlic cloves, finely grated
- 1 tbsp cider vinegar (optional)

- 150g pack ready-cooked mussels (not in shells)
- 60g peeled prawns

Method
- Heat the oil in a wide non-stick pan with a tight-fitting lid. Fry the onions and potatoes for about 5 mins, or until starting to soften. Add the peppers, courgettes, tomatoes and garlic, then stir in the vinegar, if using, the bouillon and 200ml water. Bring to a simmer, cover and cook for 25 mins, or until the peppers and courgettes are very tender (if your pan doesn’t have a tight-fitting lid, wet a sheet of baking parchment and place over the stew before covering – this helps keep in the juices).
