Chicken, kale and lentils

Serves    4-6
Prep time: 15 mins
Cooking time: 40 mins

The roasting chicken combines with the lentils and kale creating a delicious dish full of good things. A hint of chilli is countered by the creamy ricotta flavoured with garlic and tomato. Cooking it all in the oven frees up your time at the end of a busy day.
