Preheat a skillet over a medium heat. Take your chicken thighs and dry well with a paper towel and season both sides.

Once your pan is hot, add a little oil, then place your chicken thighs in the pan skin side down in the pan. Press them down to ensure there is good contact with the skin.

Leave them to slowly cook through on the skin side for 8 minutes or until the chicken is cooked most the way through. Flip them to cook for 4 minutes on the other side.

Ensure that the centre of the thigh is 72°C before removing.

Add a small amount of diced shallots, minced garlic and some thyme leaves to the pan and sweat out. Then add paprika and cook this in before adding some white wine.

Finish with some cream for a simple sauce.

Add the chicken thighs back into the pan, skin side up, to warm through and serve.

All our meat is delivered frozen.

We deliver it to you in insulated sustainable wool packaging that can keep it frozen for 72hrs. When you receive your meat please put it straight in the freezer. Even if it has defrosted it is ok to put back in the freezer as long as it is not warm.

We deliver it frozen for a number of critical reasons:

• Natures preservative. Freezing is one of the most ancient of all methods of preservation. We firmly believe that when frozen rapidly there is no loss of quality in the meat.

• Sustainability. By freezing our meat we can ensure there is as close to zero waste as possible. Our meat is frozen as soon as it is butchered in protective packaging that allows us to keep the meat perfectly for over a year. This is vs 10 days for fresh.

• Seasonality. Like vegetables, meat has a season. By freezing our meat we can select our produce when it is at its very best. Fresh meat butchers cannot do this and you can taste the difference in our meat.

• Better supporting farmers. For our farmers it is most profitable for them to get the produce off the farm as soon as it is ready. This allows us to support them better.
