Ingredients

  • 150g (usually 1 whole box) of blueberries (fresh, not frozen).
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts or 4 skinless chicken thighs.
  • 1 onion.
  • A handful of fresh parsley leaves.
  • 2 tsp sugar.

Method

  • STEP 1
    Pre-heat the oven to 180c/160c fan/gas mark 4.
  • STEP 2
    Chop the onion into slices but do not dice it. The slow cooking will take care of it. Spread the sliced onion in the bottom of a casserole dish and add the parsley.
  • STEP 3
    Chop all the fat off the chicken parts. What looked like a large amount of chicken in the recipe does not look so large after it has been stripped of the bad stuff.
  • STEP 4
    Dry fry the chicken parts on both sides for approx 30 seconds until it goes white. Yes dry fry, do not use any oil.
  • STEP 5
    Remove from the frying pan, chop the chicken up into smaller parts then spread in the casserole dish.
  • STEP 6
    Put all of the blueberries into a blender with a third of a glass of water. Blend it then pour it over the casserole, stir in the sugar and then bake for 2 hours with a lid on.
  • STEP 7
    When you pull it out after 2 hours it may look burnt but it is just the colour that this unusual dish gives upon finish. Stir it a bit and it will go to a lighter blue.
