• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • In a medium bowl, combine garlic & herb seasoning and a drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken thigh and toss to coat. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a high heat. Add chicken and cook until browned, 2 minutes each side. Transfer to a baking dish (it will finish cooking in step 3!).

Stir to combine.
