The ultimate shove-in-a-pan-and-call-dinner-done meal. So quick,so easy and a total crowd pleaser. By adding a decent lug of honey to the marinade,the sugars help brown and crisp the top of the chicken without having to pre-fry first.

Ingredients

  • 5 chicken marylands

  • 200g haloumi,sliced about 2cm thick

  • 3 lemons,halved

  • 1 head of garlic,halved horizontally

  • 2-3 large sprigs rosemary,plus extra to serve

Marinade

  • 2 tsp dried oregano

  • 3 tbsp honey,plus extra to serve

  • ¼ cup olive oil

Method

  1. Step1

    Preheat oven to 180C.

  2. Step2

    Add the chicken skin-side-up,haloumi slices,lemon halves,garlic and rosemary to a large roasting dish (about 30-40cm) in a single layer.

  3. Step3

    Mix the marinade ingredients in a small jug then pour over the chicken and haloumi pieces. Season generously with salt and pepper and place in the oven. Roast for 40-45 minutes or until chicken is golden brown and juices run clear when pierced with a skewer. From about the 30-minute mark,keep an eye on the chicken – if the skin and haloumi pieces are taking on too much colour,cover with foil for the remaining cooking time.

  4. Step4

    Serve with reserved fresh rosemary and a drizzle of honey.
