This is one of the dishes that is easy to have ready the night before and pop it into the oven as you arrive home! It is a family favourite that is colourful, full of flavour and a winner with young and old. I would suggest using chicken thighs and making sure that you get that lovely golden sear on the outside to give the dish an extra layer of flavour. Let the oven do the hard work in this lovely Mediterranean style dish!
