You would never think these ingredients would go well together, however they do go perfectly well together. I found this recipe on Jamie Oliver's website.

Ingredients

1 hour 30 mins
6 servings
  1. 1 1/2 kgchicken, either whole or in pieces
  2. 2lemons, zest only
  3. 1cinnamon stick
  4. 4fresh sage leaves
  5. 10garlic cloves, in their jackets
  6. 50 ml(approximately) olive oil, extra virgin or butter
  7. sea salt
  8. freshly ground black pepper
  9. 550 mlmilk

Cooking Instructions

1 hour 30 mins
  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 190c/gas mark 5/ 375°F. And season the chicken generously.

  2. 2

    In a deep heavy pan brown the chicken in olive oil.

  3. 3

    Times vary depending on the size of the chicken. My chicken was cut into medium pieces so it took about 5-10 minutes to brown the chicken. Turn the chicken a few times to get an even colour all over.

  4. 4

    Transfer chicken to a plate. In the original recipe it's recommended you remove the excess fat. Don't throw it away as it has good flavour and you can use it to make roast potatoes or in a different dish.

  5. 5

    Put the chicken back into the pot. Pour in the milk and add in the lemon zest, cinnamon stick, fresh sage, salt and scatter the garlic cloves in the pan.

  6. 6

    Cover with lid and transfer to the oven. Bake for 60 minutes. Baste with the juices occasionally.

  7. 7

    Remove lid and bake for a further 30 minutes.

  8. 8

    Let it rest for 10 minutes. Then to serve pull the meat off the bone. On the plate spoon the juices over the meat.
