Ingredients

  • 650 g skinless and boneless chicken thighs
  • 2 small red onions, (peeled and diced)
  • 2 peppers, (deseeded and diced)
  • low-calorie cooking spray
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 2 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp hot chilli powder
  • 1 tsp onion granules
  • 1 tsp granulated sweetener
  • 2 tsp tomato purée
  • 1 lemon, (juice only)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C.

  2. 2

    Add the chicken, onions, and peppers to an ovenproof dish. Spray with low-calorie cooking spray.

  3. 3

    Combine: In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix until smooth. Pour over the chicken and vegetables, then mix to coat.

  4. 4

    Pop in the oven and cook for 40 minutes, until the chicken is browned and cooked through. You may need to add a couple of tablespoons of water to the dish to make some extra sauce — it really depends on how much liquid comes out of the vegetables and chicken during the cooking process.

  5. 5

    Serve with rice and a wedge of extra lemon!
