Method

  1. Heat half the oil in a large frying pan or shallow casserole with a lid. Brown the chicken until golden, then set aside. Heat the remaining oil, then cook the onions for 5 mins until softened.
  2. Nestle the thighs back amongst the onions and add the parnips. Mix the stock with the mustard and honey, then pour in. Scatter over the thyme, then bring to a simmer. Cover, then cook for 30 mins (or longer, see tip) until the chicken is tender, then season. Serve with steamed greens.

Tip

If you've got time, this casserole will gently bubble away for up to 90 minutes. The meat will be very tender and fall away from the bones.

    I love this recipe, however I have changed it a bit to make it more substantial and healthy by adding some sweet potato,carrot and peas alongside the parsnips. I then serve it with brocolli and either rice or mashed potato (although I leave out the parnips if I am serving it with mash). Yum!

    This was really tasty but I found that the parsnips went too soft. If I were to do it again, and I probably would, I'd put the parsnips in much later or perhaps cook them seperately.

    I tried this tonight and thought it was quite nice apart from the sauce was quite runny and full of chicken fat even after browning the chicken. Maybe it was the chicken l bought! I will try it a again though but maybe use chicken breast or cook chicken first and finish in the oven.

It was a perfect combination of sweet and tangy,and the textures were wonderful.Thanks for this recipe, i loved it and so did my fussy children.

    We love this!! Added carrots as suggested and may add a bit of extra stock next time as we like lots of sauce/gravy!! Like the idea of sweet potato will try that next time. One of our favourites, thanks Good Food.

    I love this recipe. Very easy and tastes fabulous too! I make it regularly after uni, a very nice and warming dish. I serve it with mixed wild rice, the nuttiness really copliments it. I don't find it to sweet at all!

    Not as good as i was hoping but husband seemed to like it. I used carrots instead of parsnips (they would have defo been too soggy) and served with roast potatoes. More work than expected and the sauce was very very watery. Good though if you need to leave something in the oven for when you get home...i put in the oven at 180c for an hour. May try again, mixed feelings!
