Preparation
1
Prep the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Discard the string holding the chicken legs together.

Transfer the chicken to a baking tray, drizzle over oil, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle the rosemary all over the skin. 

2
Time to Roast

Roast the chicken on the middle shelf of your oven for 75-95 mins, depending on size (see product label for cook time). IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging. It's cooked when the juices from the thigh run clear and there's no pink meat.

Serve in a large serving dish.

3
Make the Piggies

Lay a rasher of bacon on a chopping board. Place a cocktail sausage on top and roll it up. Repeat with the other sausages and rashers. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw meat.

Pop the sausages onto a baking tray and bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden brown and cooked through, 20-25 mins. IMPORTANT: The sausages are cooked when no longer pink in the middle. Cook bacon thoroughly.

Serve the pigs in blankets on a plate.

4
Prep your Gravy

Fill and boil your kettle.

Halve, peel and chop the onion into quarters. Roughly chop the carrot into thick rounds (no need to peel).

Heat the oil (see pantry for amount) in a large saucepan on medium-high heat.

Once hot, add the onion and carrot and fry, stirring occasionally, until browned, 10-12 mins. Adjust the heat if needed.

5
Simmer and Stir

Once the veg is browned all over, add the plain flour (see ingredients for amount - we may've sent you more than you need) and stir until it's well coated. Cook for 30 secs, then slowly pour in the boiling water (see pantry for amount). Stir continuously to avoid any lumps.

Stir in the chicken stock paste until dissolved. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to medium.

6
Sieve

Simmer gently for 10-15 mins, or until reduced and thickened. TIP: Add a splash of water or simmer for longer to get the gravy to your liking.

Once thick and glossy, drain your gravy through a sieve into a large mixing
bowl. Use the back of a large spoon to squeeze out all the liquid from the veg, then discard the veg.

Serve the gravy in a jug.
