Preheat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Slice the potato (unpeeled) into 1cm fries. Pick and finely chop the rosemary leaves. Place the fries and rosemary on an oven tray lined with baking paper. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then bake on the top rack until tender, 25-30 minutes. In the last 5 minutes of cook time, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the fries and bake until melted.
TIP: Cut the potato to the correct size so it cooks in the allocated time!
While the fries are baking, finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Pick and finely chop the oregano leaves. Zest the lemon to get a good pinch, then slice into wedges. In a medium bowl, combine the oregano, yoghurt, the salt, lemon zest, a good squeeze of lemon juice, 3/4 of the garlic and a drizzle of olive oil. Season with a pinch of pepper. Add the chicken thigh and toss to coat.
In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, turning occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 10-14 minutes.
TIP: The chicken is cooked when it's no longer pink inside.
While the chicken is cooking, thinly slice the carrot (unpeeled) into half-moons. Cut the broccoli into small florets and roughly chop the stalk.
In a medium frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Add the carrot, broccoli and a splash of water and cook, tossing, until tender, 8-10 minutes. Add the remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
TIP: Add a dash of water to help speed up the cooking process.
Thickly slice the chicken. Divide the oregano chicken, rosemary-Parmesan fries and veggies between plates. Serve with the garlic aioli.
