Ingredients
1½ kg chicken - organic, skin and wings removed
2 tbs olive oil
2 clove garlic, crushed
350 grams eschallots, peeled
20 grams preserved lemon, finely sliced
250 grams fennel, trimmed and sliced
8 springs thyme
Method

Preheat the oven to 180°C fan forced
Place the chicken pieces in a large sealable bag and add the flour and pepper.
Seal and shake the bag until the chicken is coated in flour.

Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside.
Reduce the heat slightly and add the garlic and eschallots to sauté for 2 to 3 minutes.
