Honey lemon & thyme chicken (with) roasted butternut squash

I love thyme. I use it in almost all my cooking because it reminds me of my mum and my childhood. She used thyme heavily in her Roasts and general week meals. So it's a herb I always come back to again and again. This recipe was relatively quick to make, easy and delicious. 😋😋😋 I love to serve this with new potatoes and thus delicious red cabbage salad by @hirokoliston

Peel and cut butternut squash into thick slices and oil and season.

* Step 3

Roast the chicken and butternut squash in the same pan for 30 mins.

In the meantime mix together finely grated rind on lemon, thyme and honey. And prepare any desired side dishes (I love new potatoes and a fresh crunchy red cabbage salad)

At 30 minutes. Remove the butternut squash from the pan.

Drain off most ofthe excess juices and oil from the chicken into a cup for later. Cover the chicken with the lemon honey glaze and return to oven for another 8 -10 minutes. (Basting every few minutes)

Once chicken is cooked. Serve up with your roasted squash, potato and salad.

* Step 8

For additional honey glaze return the juices and oil previously removed from the chicken back to the remaining glaze in the pan to loosen. Pour over as needed.
