1tsp dried sage
1tsp dried oregano
3 cloves garlic, crushed
½tsp chilli flakes
8 chicken thighs or 4 legs, skin on, bone in

50g green olives

Method
1Mix together the marinade ingredients.
2Put the chicken pieces in a bowl and season with pepper. Pour the marinade over the chicken – rub it into and under the skin. Leave to marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hr, preferably overnight.
3Remove the chicken from the fridge 30 mins before cooking. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.
4Spread the onions, garlic, squash, apricots and sage over the base of a roasting tin. Season with pepper. Drizzle over the olive oil and mix so everything is well coated. Put the chicken on top and drizzle over any remaining marinade.
5Roast for 45-50 mins until the chicken is cooked through and the veg is tender and slightly charred round the edges. Add the olives for the last 5 mins, just to heat through. Serve sprinkled with the chopped herbs and with the lemon wedges on the side, to squeeze over the chicken.
