This lightly spiced chicken dinner makes a change from the traditional roast. One-pot meals make brilliant family dinners, as it keeps the washing up to a minimum and you get a delicious healthy balanced meal.
This would make a great mid week meal, marinating the chicken and prepping the veg the day before then whacking it all in the oven when you get in from work.
The original recipe called for full fat yogurt, so I switched this out and replaced with 0%fat yogurt, which brought the calories right down to 354 per person. If you do decide to use the full fat yogurt, it would work out at 410 calories per serving, so still not too high.
