Method

  1. 1

    Heat the oven to 200C (180C fan, gas 6). Rub the chicken thighs with the crushed garlic, baharat, lemon juice and half the oil.

  2. 2

    Roast on a tray for 30 minutes, adding the tomatoes to the tray for the last 10-12 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through with no pink remaining and the tomatoes have softened.

  3. 3

    Meanwhile cook the basmati rice in plenty of boiling salted water for 10-12 minutes until tender, then drain and toss with the remaining oil.

  4. 4

    Fluff the rice onto a platter.

  5. 5

    Top with the roasted chicken and tomatoes to serve.
