Lemon and garlic chicken

This is a simple dish to prepare and delivers every time. Its simplicity lends itself to lots of modifications.  We’d gobbled it up before I could get off a shot.

Ingredients 

6-8 chicken thigh fillets cut into serve size chunks

1 tsp minced garlic

1/2 preserved lemon

1 Tbsp baby capers to taste, drained 

1/2 onion sliced

Rosemary and/or your favourite herbs - tarragon, lemon thyme


Method

Brown chicken pieces in a little olive oil then add the rest of ingredients. Cover and cook till meat is tender.


Chook’s note: dried or semi dried fresh Herbs work OK but fresh gives just a wee extra je ne sais quoi! Any extras left over can be frozen - I Usually make double and freeze half . Next time I’m going to try this with lemongrass, ginger and chilli. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
