This is one of my favourite go to tricks for when I want something different. It's quick, easy and you only need one pan as the name suggests. This recipe is inspired by Nigella's One Pan Sage and Onion Chicken and Sausage. I've skipped the sausage since I didn't have it stashed in the fridge this time, but the results even without it are remarkable and that's made me quite happy with the end result.
Stay tuned for my next recipe, Home made apple pie!
INGREDIENTS:
1 whole pre-cut chicken (skin on or off- whichever way you like
100gms butter cut into small cubes
2 tablespoons Aatash Foods - Super Chef's English Mustard
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
250gms baby potatoes halved or big potatoes cut into wedges
2 red onions quatered
1 whole pod of garlic (peeled, individual cloves crushed by hand)
METHOD:
Step 1: Preheat oven to 250 degrees
Step 2: Line a flat baking pan (if you're metal) with aluminium foil. This makes cleaning afterward easier.
Step 3: Rub butter on each piece of chicken. Try inserting small cubes of butter into the more meaty pieces like drumsticks, thighs and breast pieces. This helps the meatier pieces remain succulent.
Step 4: Arrange the chicken in the pan. In the gaps add the potatoes, garlic and onions. See picture below, you want the pan to look a little crowded.

Step 5: Add the mustard and rub it into all the ingredients in the pan. Flatten them out once more and cover the pan with aluminium foil. Set aside for a few minutes
Step 6: Place the pan into the oven set to 250degrees for 50 minutes and then for 20 minutes at 225degrees without the foil covering it. To allow it to brown a little.
IF you're using a fan oven, then 250 degrees covered for 35 minutes alone would suffice.
Step 7: Serve hot with garlic toasties :) For the health conscious there's always chapatis ;)
