One pot chock full of flavour and goodness! Bursting with tasty vegetables and tender
chicken, this makes any weekday meal a treat and a showstopper for entertaining.
Chicken thighs are definitely my preferred part of the
chicken. I stopped using them for a
while as it was always a bit of a faff to debone and skin them (yes I can be a
lazy cook sometimes) but now it’s so much easier to buy them in the
supermarket, they are a staple in my house.
Not only delicious, they are cheap to buy so with a few kitchen staples,
you can have a meal on the table within 40 minutes that doesn't break the bank
or the belt! You can also substitute the thighs with chicken breast to make it even more healthy.

Serves 4
You will need:
8 Chicken Boneless Chicken Thighs – skin free (if you are
using bone in allow for 5 mins longer cooking time)
3 Bacon Medallions Diced
1 Pack of Sliced Leek and Cabbage (or one leek and a small savoy cabbage)
1 Clove Garlic Minced
200g Frozen Garden Peas
1 Chicken Stock Pot/ Cube
300ml Boiling Water
2 TBSP 0% Fat Free Greek Yoghurt ( I use Fage)
Frylight/Calorie Controlled Oil Spray
Salt & Pepper for Seasoning
Method
Dissolve the Stock in the water and set aside
In a large frying pan sprayed with oil, fry the bacon and
set aside once cooked
Lightly spray and season the chicken thighs and start to fry
in the same pan as the bacon cooked in, add the garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side to almost
cooked all the way through – remove and put on a plate with the bacon
If needed spray a little oil into the pan and start to stir
fry until softened 3-4 minutes
Return the chicken and bacon to the pan, add the stock and
peas and set on a low to medium heat and simmer for 10-15 minutes until the
chicken and peas are cooked through
Take off the heat and after a minute or two carefully stir
the yoghurt in, mix it in as soon as possible to reduce it splitting
Serve with crusty bread or with Garlic & Spinach MashedPotatoes
