    Ingredients

    1 Butcher’s Selection British Chicken Thigh, deboned, skin on

    1tsp olive oil

    ½ Grower’s Selection British Extra Trimmed Leek, sliced

    1 clove garlic, sliced

    75ml reduced-fat crème fraîche

    Method

    1
    Season the chicken with freshly ground black pepper. Heat a splash of the oil in a frying pan, then add the leek. Add the chicken, skin-side down, and cook for 4 mins.
    2
    Add the garlic to the pan. Turn the chicken over, give the leeks a stir and cook for another 6 mins, or until the chicken is completely cooked through and the skin is crispy and golden on both sides.
    3
    Add the crème fraîche and simmer for 1 min to reduce and thicken the sauce slightly. Season with more freshly ground black pepper, drizzle with the remaining olive oil and serve immediately.
