Method

The dish is best when cooked in a preheated oven set to 220C/200C Fan/Gas mark seven.

Start by chopping the squash and onion into even-sized wedges, then arrange them in a roasting tin with the chicken thighs (skin-side up), and the sausages.

Season with salt and pepper then sprinkle over the thyme and drizzle over one tablespoon of the oil.

Mix the red wine with 100ml of water and pour this into the tin, then roast for 30 minutes.

Turn the sausages halfway through cooking to encourage browning then, combine the red wine vinegar and maple syrup in a bowl.

Stir the glaze over the contents of the roasting tin followed by the chilli flakes if using, then add the mushroom halves and another spoonful of oil.

Roast for a further 25–30 minutes, or until cooked through and well browned.

The Hairy Bikers suggested serving the bake with any pan juices spooned over, and a sprinkling of fresh, chopped parsley.
