Provençal Chicken and Tomato Roast

This Provençal chicken and tomato roast is a vibrant, one-tray meal that captures the rustic flavours of southern France. By roasting succulent chicken legs alongside plum tomatoes, celery, and earthy potatoes, the juices mingle to create a natural sauce. The addition of sun-dried tomatoes and salty Kalamata olives provides a Mediterranean depth that perfectly complements the roasted poultry.

As a high-protein dish, this recipe is ideal for a nutritious midweek dinner that requires minimal preparation. The high-temperature roasting technique ensures the chicken skin becomes beautifully crisp while the vegetables caramelise and soften. Serve this wholesome meal straight from the tray for a comforting, homemade feast that is as healthy as it is satisfying.
