Method
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/Gas Mark 6.
- Cut each chicken breast in half horizontally into 2 thin breasts. Set aside.
- Place the red pepper, courgettes and 3 sprigs of thyme in a roasting tin, drizzle with 1 tbsp rapeseed oil and season well. Cook for 20 minutes, turning after 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven, add the chicken breasts to the tin, squeeze the lemon juice over the chicken, drizzle with the remaining rapeseed oil and season well.
- Return to the oven and cook for a further 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and there is no pink meat. To serve, layer the chicken pieces and roasted vegetables in a stack and garnish with thyme.
