Ingredients

For 4 servings.

  • 1000 g chicken thighs
  • 600 g courgette

How to make it

  1. Heat the oven to 200 degrees and let it preheat for about 10 minutes.
  2. Cut the courgette into thick slices.
  3. Lay the thighs and courgette in a dish, dot the butter over and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the skin is crisp.
  5. Serve straight from the dish, so the courgette gets the juices.

Why it is easy

Calculated from the ingredients using figures from Frida (the National Food Institute at the Technical University of Denmark), by the same code the app uses. The calories are rounded to the nearest ten, because home cooking lands within about ±30 % — a number with more digits would promise a precision it does not have. No judgement is attached to these figures, and none is coming.
