Preheat your oven to 200 °C. Pop the chicken thighs on a lined baking tray and drizzle on a splash of oil. Season with salt, pepper and half the dried thyme. Use your hands to rub the flavours all over the meat. Roast the chicken thighs on the top shelf of your oven until golden and cooked through, 30-35 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink in the middle

Instruction

While your chicken and potatoes are cooking, do any washing up. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press) then heat a frying pan on medium heat and add the butter. Once the butter has melted, add the cavolo nero, stir, add a splash of water, and the garlic and pop on a lid. Cook until the leaves are tender, 4-5 mins, stir every now and then. When ready, season with salt and pepper and keep to one side.
