One pan sticky chicken
Discussion
I'm eating my version of this as I type, just right to go with the new pots I dug up from the metal bucket in my back yard.
The only change I made was after the chicken had cooked I put the pan on the hob and added some balsamic vinegar to make more sauce and take a bit of the sweetness from the honey.

Doing this tonight but I've used skinned and boned thighs and stuffed them with garlic and thyme. We'll see!
Noice!The garlic and thyme 'stuffing' worked really well though, the meat was very fragrant.

Done this over the weekend. Its a tasty one pot dish which is cheap and very easy.
Tesco sell a pack of 3 chicken drum sticks and 3 chicken thighs for £2.00 special offer.
Place them in them in a pan skin side up. Smash up 5 garlic cloves (no need to peel) and place in and around chicken. Spinkle with Tyme. Drizzle with olive oil and honey and season. Place in the oven at 150c for approx 2 hrs for the last 20mins turn the oven up to 190c to crispen skin.
The skin is crisp and the meat falls of the bone.
Serve with salad and some boiled baby new potatos.
Total cost for a family of 4 £4.00
Enjoy
I did this last night and it was nice, so cheers, but I think next time I'd only cook the chicken for an hour and fifteen, it was a little dry.Tesco sell a pack of 3 chicken drum sticks and 3 chicken thighs for £2.00 special offer.

Gonna do this tonight as well.
Looks very tasty.
Not a big fan of new potatoes though so thinking either wedges or gratin - anyone got a good recipe for either?
My wedges are pretty regular - sprinkle with season and bung in oven.
Never made my own gratin ?
This looks pretty decent, although slicing up all those spuds will be a mare without a mandolin thing. Some cheese graters have a slicer side which is okay as long as you're careful!Looks very tasty.

I've got this in the oven right now, thanks for the inspiration
Edit: Cracking chicken! Will have a play around the the recipe a bit now and see what happens but really pleased with the results based on this one.
I did 4 thighs and 6 legs in a fairly small oven dish so they were all packed in, full bulb of garlic just crushed slightly and scattered around, lots of thyme, honey, salt and pepper - 1:25 at 150 degrees in the fan oven and then 25 minutes at 190. Fall off the bone chicken, moist with a nice crispy skin. Lovely.

How did that work out? Usually leaving the bone/skin on is better as it keeps the moisture in.I'm going to give this one a pop tonight, it sounds bloomin tasty and that photo above is making me drool already
