This recipe is a riff on about 5 different versions I have tested over the last while. We are normally a chicken fillet house but there is something so good about chicken thighs in this because of the skin and the bone. Think of them like a big chicken wing! The dipping sauce is just divine and is from Rick Stein’s new book.

Add 1 litre of water and then nestle the chicken back into the pot skin side up.
5
Bring it up to a boil. Put the lid on and place it into the oven for 20 minutes.
6
Remove the lid and cook for another 10 minutes.
7
Blitz up all the dipping sauce ingredients to create a smooth sauce.
8
Serve the chicken with a big spoon of rice, some coriander, cucumber slices, and a bowl of the dipping sauce.
