Method
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Prepare all ingredients as indicated above.
Step 2
Place a pan on a medium-high heat. Drizzle in a little olive oil and when the pan is hot, place the chicken skin-side down. Cook until the skin is golden, about 3 minutes.
Step 3
Transfer the chicken to a large casserole dish or roasting tray with the brussels sprouts, thyme, garlic and onion. Pour over a good glug of olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Arrange everything in one layer, with the chicken skin-side up. Roast for 35 minutes (give everything a little mix every 10 minutes). After 35 minutes remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the chicken, brussels sprouts and onion with the parmesan. Roast for another 5-10 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
Step 4
Serve the chicken with the golden brussels sprouts and onion.
