1.Preheat oven to 200C. Heat 30ml oil in large frying pan over medium-high heat, add onion and garlic and sauté until tender (3-4 minutes), add sherry and saffron, then potato, stock, herbs and 200ml water. Cover and bring to the boil, then uncover and cook until very tender and liquid is almost completely reduced (15-20 minutes). Season to taste, stir through piquillo peppers and lemon juice.

Heat remaining oil in a large ovenproof frying pan over medium-high heat, add chicken, skin-side down, and brown well (3-4 minutes). Turn and roast in oven until cooked through (10-12 minutes). Serve hot, scattered with extra herbs, with saffron potatoes, piquillo peppers and wild rocket salad, if desired.
Piquillo peppers are available canned or in jars from select delicatessens.
