Stuffed chicken thighs with barberries and feta

Ingredients: 
8 small chicken thighs (or 4 large ones), boned but with the skin on For the stuffing 70g sourdough, cut up into very rough chunks 80g feta, crumbled 15g barberries, soaked in 3 tbsp boiling water 4 spring onions, trimmed and thinly sliced 3 tbsp chopped coriander 3 tbsp chopped parsley 1 garlic clove, chopped 50g pecans, lightly toasted and roughly chopped ½ tsp salt, plus a little extra to season the chicken Freshly ground black pepper

Heat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6. Blitz the sourdough in a food processor until you have small crumbs. Place in a large bowl, add all the other stuffing ingredients and mix well. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Place the chicken thighs skin-side down on a baking sheet lined with nonstick paper. Place one to two tablespoons of stuffing in the centre of each thigh, filling it up well, then roll up and secure with a cocktail stick. Turn the thighs over, so that the seam side faces down, and season with a little salt.

Roast for 25 minutes, or until cooked though. Leave to rest for five minutes, then serve hot or at room temperature.
