![]() ![]() Sprinkle over a few pinches of ground cinnamon, roll the pastry up as if it’s a Swiss roll, then cut it into 6 pieces. Cut the pastry in half so you have two 20 x 20cm squares and put one in the fridge to use at a later date. Tarts: Dust a surface with flour and unroll a 375g sheet of puff pastry onto it.Cook until golden underneath and then turn. Drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper then place onto the griddle pan, skin side down. Chicken: Put 4 chicken thighs on a chopping board, skin side down, and use a knife to make some slashes in the meat.Preheat your oven to 200☌ (180☌ fan) and put the griddle pan on a high heat.You’ll need a blender, a muffin tin, a small saucepan, a griddle pan and a roasting tin that will snugly contain 4 large chicken thighs.I cooked this for two (not halving the ingredients) and had leftovers which reheated nicely and made a great lunch the next day. Ultimately, the dinner I ended up with was impressive and tasty so the timings don’t really bother me. I found that the tarts took a while to colour (longer than the 18 minutes specified in the recipe) so the chicken ended up being in the oven for at least another 10 minutes but thighs are a forgiving cut of meat. I think most of the 30 Minute Meals aren’t achievable in 30 minutes the first time you cook them as there’s a lot of back and forth between the instructions and the cooking. The chicken is really tasty though, with lovely crispy skin and meat falling off the bone, so all in all it was worth it. Next time I’ll put some old newspaper on the floor as the clean up took ages. Chicken thighs, especially ones with the skin-on, are pretty fatty (no complaints from me) but when cooked on a griddle the fat goes absolutely everywhere. ![]() All of the elements of this recipe are really simple (basic salad, basic potatoes, a quick orange caramel) but they go together perfectly and the little tarts are rustic, charming and delicious.Īlthough I’ve owned my griddle pan for something like ten years, until this recipe I’d never cooked chicken on it. I remember seeing Jamie Oliver make them on TV and thinking that they looked incredible. This 30 Minute Meal has been on my to-cook list for ages, mostly for the Portuguese tarts.
