Handful of black or green olives, drained and rinsed
1 onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, crushed
400g tin chopped tomatoes
Splash of red wine vinegar
2 x 400g tins chickpeas, drained and rinsed
Handful of fresh parsley, finely chopped
Directions
Heat the oven to 220°C/ fan200°C/gas 7. Put 2 tbsp of the olive oil, the smoked paprika and the chicken into a bowl, season and rub to coat. Put the thighs, skin-side up, in a roasting tin with the olives. Roast for 35-40 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat the remaining oil in a frying pan, then gently fry the onion and garlic for 10 minutes without colouring. Add the tomatoes and vinegar, season well and cook until reduced a little. Add the chickpeas, cook for 2-3 minutes, then add the parsley.
When the chicken is golden and crisp, spoon out a few tablespoons of the roasting pan juices into the chickpeas. Serve the chickpeas and olives topped with the chicken.
