Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220°C (425°F). Toss the courgette with half the oil and bake in a 9 by 13 inch (23 by 33 cm) dish 10 minutes, until the edges dry.
  2. Meanwhile brown the chicken hard over medium-high heat in the rest of the oil, leaving it undisturbed between stirs, 6 minutes, until golden. Add the onion and garlic for 3 minutes, then the paprika for 30 seconds.
  3. Stir in the corn, tip it all over the courgette and turn once.
  4. Scatter the mozzarella and breadcrumbs over and bake 12-15 minutes, until blistered and crisp on top and the chicken reads 74°C (165°F). Finish with parsley and the lemon juice at the table.
Chef’s tipBake the courgette alone ten minutes first, or it turns the dish to soup.
KeepKeeps 3 days, freezes 2 months in squares. Warm covered in a low oven.
