directions

  • Heat a griddle pan.
  • Rub the boned chicken legs all over with a little olive oil and the thyme leaves.
  • Lay each piece on the grill pan, skin side down.
  • Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Leave the meat in place for at least three minutes, pressing down firmly with a spatula or large knife.
  • Turn the meat over and continue cooking for about eight minutes, until the meat is a glossy golden brown on both sides.
  • While the chicken is cooking, put the aioli in a bowl and beat in a little warm chicken stock or water to thin it down.
  • But, make sure it is still thick enough to slide off a spoon.
  • When the chicken is cooked, crumble over some more sea salt and serve with a bit of the garlic mayonnaise on the side.

This is a picture of me and my husband in Portugal, climbing up above the clouds with our bikes. Right now we are travelling around the world on our bicycles, so I only pop onto Zaar occasionally, when internet connections and time allow me to. If I don't reply to a message about one of my recipes, now you know why! Our trip may take several years so if it's urgent, it's probably better for you to post in the forums ;) Good food is really important to me -- I am happy to pay extra for food that I feel is produced in a sustainable and ethical way and always try to eat using seasonal produce. When we were in the UK we rarely shopped at supermarkets, trying instead to favour small producers, although we were very lucky in that we lived in London and there was lots of choice. We also were fortunate enough to have a weekly organic veg box delivered to our door, filled with so many lovely vegetables for very little money. It really opened my horizons in terms of the variety of vegetables I eat. If you're in the UK, check out Riverford for a box supplier as they're amazing! When I'm not eating I love to take pictures and travel with my husband. <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/World%20Tour/ZWT2.gif">
