This recipe is originally for 2 servings. How many are you cooking for today?

Ingredients
  • 10 5/8 ozs bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs (2 medium)
  • 7 ozs broccoli rabe (rapini), trimmed
  • 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 pinch sea salt and black pepper
Instructions
1

Preheat oven to 220°C (425°F). Season chicken thighs salt and pepper.

2

Place chicken thighs skin-side up on a baking tray and roast 30–35 minutes until skin is golden and internal temperature reaches 74°C (165°F).

3

Meanwhile, blanch broccoli rabe in boiling water for 1–2 minutes, then shock in cold water.

4

In a warm pan, briefly toss broccoli rabe with sliced garlic and lemon juice using the pan’s residual heat from the chicken resting (no added oil needed). Season to taste.

5

Plate chicken thighs alongside the lemon-broccoli rabe and serve.
