Method

step 1
Heat the oven to 200c/fan 180c/gas 6. Lay the thighs flat on a board. Divide the cheese between them then roll up, tucking in any extra bits of chicken to keep in the cheese. Wrap each thigh with a slice of parma ham to make a parcel and sit on a baking tray, seam side down, and with the ends tucked underneath. Roast for 40 minutes or until until they are cooked through and parma ham is crisp.

step 2
Meanwhile, put a knob of butter in a pan, add the peas and stock and simmer for 3 minutes. Whizz with a hand blender to a purée (it won’t be completely smooth). This can be reheated just before serving.
-
step 3
Serve two thighs per person with some pea purée.
