Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. In a large roasting tin, toss together the aubergine, courgettes and peppers with half the chopped rosemary, half the garlic, 2 tbsp oil and some seasoning. Spread out the vegetables in an even layer, then roast in the oven for 20 mins.
  2. Meanwhile, mix remaining rosemary, garlic and oil together. Slash each of the chicken breasts 4-5 times with a sharp knife, brush over the flavoured oil, season and chill for 15 mins.
  3. After veg have cooked for 20 mins, stir in the tomatoes. Make spaces in the roasting tin and nestle the chicken breasts amongst the vegetables. Place a rosemary sprig on top of each chicken breast. Return the tin to the oven for 18-20 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are lightly caramelised. Serve with some new potatoes, if you like.

Herbs

If you don't have fresh rosemary, use fresh thyme or a couple of pinches of dried rosemary. Dried herbs have a more intense flavour, so use less.

    Is there another herb that could be used instead of Rosemary as my fella isnt keen on it. I was wondering if Thyme would be ok as a replacement??

    So little effort and so much taste. Congratulations to the team that worked out the precise timings of the different elements. I have already done this twice with extra veg, they are delicious cold the next day. The chicken stays lovely and moist and the tomatoes taste like sun dried tomatoes and it is healthy too!

    Really good. For two I used two chicken breasts, a medium aubergine, 2 small courgettes, 1 red pepper and 250g tomatoes. I used oregano and thyme instead of the rosemary. Served with a side salad. Fantastic.

    I cooked this tonight with pasta and it was amazing. I never liked courgettes before cooking this recipe and I ate them all! This will be going in the favourites. I used thyme instead of rosemary and it did the job well.

    Very tasty, enjoyed by all the family. We don't like aubergine so I added wedges of red onion, button mushrooms and some baby carrots.

    Very disappointing. I cooked it for the advised amount of time but I found the garlic (though it was pressed) was not cooked enough, the courgettes could also have been more cooked. Overall, the flavour was not very interesting. I'll be making some sort of tomato/red onion sauce to put on the leftovers.

    Made this last Friday for guests for dinner. but changed it slightly. Added a spoonful of honey & a splash of lemon juice to the chicken marinade & chilled in the fridge for a couple of hours. Added whole shallots & roasted the veg first in the oven, then transferred to casserole dish & added a tin of cherry tomatoes when I added the chicken, served with new potatoes. Really nice, this will definately be a repeat. Very easy to make & very tasty.

    Tasty and healthy... great for feeding a crowd. I also added black olives to the veggies.. they were very good but do add some saltiness.
