Baked Chicken with Tomatoes, Basil and Red Chillies

Baked Chicken with Tomatoes, Basil and Red Chillies

There’s nothing as easy as a big pan of baked chicken and veggies for a delicious weeknight dinner. And this recipe is so good you’ll be making it for all your guests too!


Yesterday I shared a round up of healthy one-dish meals with you. It got me thinking of one of my favorite one-dish meals. It’s chicken baked with lots of tomatoes, chilies and basil. Add some bread to soak up the tomato and chicken juices and you’re good to go. It’s not only an easy and healthy meal, it’s also one of the most delicious things that I cook. Here’s how the recipe came about.

We were visiting my brother-in-law and his family in London and his wife, Maria, was making dinner. I was sipping a glass of wine and planning to chat with her while she cooked. Except she finished cooking really quickly.


All she’d done was throw a bunch of stuff in the pan and slam it in the oven. For us. For company.

I was pretty surprised since I know her to be an extremely good cook.

But then I tasted it.


And then I knew why she’d made it for us. For company.


It was fantastic. Tons of flavor. Juicy chicken. A tiny bit of heat from red chillies. The fresh flavor of basil tying it altogether.

I fell in love.


And now I regularly make Maria’s Baked Chicken for us. And for company.


Here’s how I make Baked Chicken with Tomatoes, Basil and Red Chillies.


The recipe is based on what I saw Maria do in her London kitchen.
