Jamie Oliver recipe for Chicken Tray Bake?

I haven't been able to find this recipe in the several cookbooks of his I have checked. It has chicken thighs, potatoes and tomatoes. Please provide the recipe and/or advise where to find it (which of his cookbooks). Thanks!Jamie Oliver recipe for Chicken Tray Bake?
Didn't he make it on his new show. It should be in his new book Jamie at home.Jamie Oliver recipe for Chicken Tray Bake?
I saw this recipe in his latest cookbook - ';Jamie At Home';.


Looks quite simple - fry the chicken thigh pieces, boil some potatoes, lightly crush them with thumb, drop tomatoes in boiling water and skin them,, lightly crush them, then put all together in a dish, drizzle with olive oil, oregano and lemon rind.


Bake till light golden brown... Haven't tried it yet, but sounds yummy.
Jamies Dinner's, is where you find it!





This is a really quick and convenient dinner to make - great for Saturday nights with your family. Everyone I've cooked it for has loved it, including the kids. It's kinda like an easy and healthy version of the southern American Maryland or, as many call it, ';sunshine'; cooking. Although the idea of cooking chicken with sweetcorn and banana may sound grotesque to you, it really does work! Anyway, I've taken a few liberties in order to move this dish on to another level. You can use tinned sweetcorn, but remember that the flavour won't be anything near as good as fresh.





Serves 4





4 chicken breasts, skin removed


4 fresh corn on the cob


1 x 410g tin of cannellini or butter beans, drained


2 bananas, peeled


sea salt and freshly ground black pepper


1 large wineglass of white wine


300ml/10fl oz double cream


55g/2oz butter


12 rashers of smoked streaky bacon or pancetta


a handful of fresh mint, leaves picked


Preheat your oven to 220掳C/425掳F/gas 7 and get yourself an appropriately sized roasting tray in which you can snugly fit the chicken breasts side by side. Run a knife down the length of the raw corn cobs to remove the lovely sweet bits of corn. It takes literally no time at all to do this. Once done, add the corn to the tray and discard the cobs. Using a fork (or your fingers!), squash up half your cannellini or butter beans until you have a pulp and add these, with the unsquashed half of the beans, to the tray.





Next thing to do is to put the chicken breasts on a chopping board. You will notice that each breast has a little strip or flap of meat on one side. If you fold that back using a knife and make a cut you can carefully form a little pocket inside the chicken breast. Once you have done this to all 4 chicken breasts, squash half a banana into each pocket. Then fold the flap back over to cover the banana up and season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.





Turn the fillets the other way up and carefully place them on top of the corn and beans. Add your wine and double cream, then divide the butter into little knobs and scatter these all around the tray. Drape the bacon or pancetta slices over the chicken breasts and bake in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes, until the bacon is crisp. The smoky flavour from the bacon and the smooth flavour of the bananas will have really cooked into the corn and the chicken. A lovely combination of flavours. Taste and correct the seasoning if it needs it. I usually serve this in the dish at the table, with a handful of fresh mint thrown over, and let people help themselves.
