Orange-glazed chicken thighs

Serves 130 min755 kcal

Chicken thighs with a light orange-thyme glaze, celeriac mash and spinach.

Ingredients
  • Chicken thighs — 7¾ oz (2, skin on)
  • Orange — 4½ oz (juice of 1)
  • Thyme
  • Celeriac — 2½ oz (peeled)
  • Full-fat coconut milk — 2 Tbsp
  • Spinach — 2 cups
  • Garlic-infused olive oil — 1 Tbsp
  • Sea salt & pepper
Method
  1. Boil the celeriac until very soft, ~15 minutes; mash with the coconut milk and salt.
  2. Brown the seasoned chicken skin-side down in the oil 5–6 minutes, then cook through (skin-up, lid on) 10–12 minutes to 175°F (79°C); set aside.
  3. Add the orange juice and thyme to the pan and simmer 2–3 minutes to a light glaze.
  4. Wilt the spinach. Spoon the glaze over the chicken; serve with mash and spinach.
Notes

Make the glaze right in the chicken's pan — the rendered fat + browned bits + orange juice reduce to a syrup with no added sugar.
