We had these big delicious chicken thighs in the freezer, that we hadn’t used yet.
Therefore I thougt i would try to make a delicious dish out of the chicken and what we had in the fridge. I made the chicken thighs in a Römertopf, with a lot of different vegetables. it was really good! And you don’t even have to do anything (almost) cut the vegetables, and the rest of the time the dish is looking out for itself in the oven … In the meantime you can do all your household that you are behind with 😉
When the chicken is in the Råomertopf, it is going to be really delicious and juicy.
The skin on the other side is not crispy – that we don’t like ..
But that can be solved with you taking of the lock in the last 15 minutes and turning a bit up on the heat.
The juice from the chicken/vegetables that is left in the Römertopf can be used as sauce. You just add some cream or corn starch, to thicken it a bit 🙂

The zucchini i cut in thick dices. poured on oliveoil on a grill pan and fryed the zucchinis for about 2 minutes – I took them of the pan when they have gotten that delicious “grill-look”
