We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Dust the chicken pieces with season flour.

  • Step 2: Heat a wide based heavy ovenproof pan and add the oil and brown the chicken pieces over a moderate heat until golden on both sides and then add the bacon, onion and garlic to the same pan.

  • Step 3: When softened, add the thyme, wine and stock and season well and bring to a simmer and cook over a moderate heat, covered or until the chicken is tender and then add the carrots for the last 5 minutes of cooking and then remove from the heat and stir in the peas.

  • Step 4: Meanwhile, to make the cobbler, place the flour in a bowl with a little salt and rub the butter roughly into this and then add the parsley and most of the milk.

  • Step 5: You want a soft but not runny mixture so make a judgement.

  • Step 6: Then blob the mixture over the top so it is a bit uneven and bake in a 200C oven until the top is golden brown and steaming.

  • Step 7: Suggested you serve with a green salad.
