Ingredients

Method

1

Preheat the oven to gas 4, 180°C, fan 160°C.

2

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the chicken thighs and brown, in 2 batches, until both sides are crisp and golden.

3

Transfer to a baking dish large enough to allow the thighs to sit snugly in a single layer.

4

In a bowl, whisk together the Pimm’s, 100ml orange juice, 100ml vinegar, the honey, redcurrant jelly, passata, chopped onion and the ginger; season.

5

Pour the Pimm’s sauce over the thighs and cover tightly with 2 sheets of foil.

6

Bake for 50 mins, then increase the heat to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C, remove the foil and bake for another 30 mins or until the chicken is falling apart.

7

Meanwhile, mix the onion rings with the remaining orange juice and vinegar in a bowl. Set aside but stir occasionally.

8

Lift the thighs from the sauce and shred with 2 forks.

9

Pour the sticky sauce over the pulled chicken and toss together.

10

Serve hot or cold, piled onto a platter with the lettuce leaves and scattered with the mint leaves and pickled onion rings.
