Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 45 minutes

Ingredients

8 pieces of free-range chicken
2 T olive oil, plus extra for greasing
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 onion, thinly sliced
350 g brinjals, thinly sliced lengthways
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 t dried oregano
1 lemon, juice
fresh oregano or mint, to garnish (optional)

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C.

Rub the chicken pieces with the olive oil and season lightly.

Grease a baking pan, then add a layer of onion, followed by layers of lightly seasoned brinjal. Smear over the crushed garlic and sprinkle with the oregano.

Place the chicken pieces on top of the brinjals and bake for 40 minutes or until the chicken is browned and the brinjal tender.

Squeeze over the lemon, turn off the oven and leave the chicken inside for 5 minutes.

Garnish with oregano or mint and serve with brown rice if using.
