Angela Casley's chicken thighs with oregano paste

Step 1

Preheat an oven to 180C.

Step 2

Place the oregano leaves, parsley, parmesan and first measure of olive oil into a kitchen processor. Pulse until all are well combined. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 3

Heat the tablespoonful of oil in a frying pan. Add the red onions and garlic, cooking slowly for 10 minutes to soften. Add the balsamic and chicken stock, stirring through.

Step 4

Spread the onion mixture into an ovenproof baking dish. Place the chicken thighs on top, snuggling them among the onions. Place a spoonful of the oregano mixture on to each thigh.

Step 5

Drizzle over a little extra olive oil, cover and place into the oven for 40 minutes, removing the cover after 20 minutes. Serve hot with rice or mashed potatoes.
