Cooking Steps
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Chop the potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel). Pop the wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins.
While the wedges cook, pop the chicken thighs in a large bowl along with the Caribbean style jerk seasoning and the olive oil for the marinade (see pantry for amount).
Season with salt and pepper and mix well to coat. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw chicken and its packaging.
Lay the chicken thighs flat onto a lined baking tray. Roast on the middle shelf of your oven until browned and cooked through, 16-18 mins. IMPORTANT: The chicken is cooked when no longer pink in the middle.
When the chicken has 5 mins remaining, drizzle over the mango chutney and return to the oven for the remaining cook time.
Meanwhile, zest and cut the lime into wedges.
In a small bowl, combine the lime zest, honey and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for both amounts). Season with salt and pepper, then mix well.
When the wedges have 5 mins remaining, spoon over the honey lime dressing and toss to combine. Return the wedges to the oven for the remaining cook time.
While everything cooks, in a medium bowl, combine the mayo, a squeeze of lime juice from a lime wedge and the sugar (see pantry for amount).
Add the coleslaw mix to the bowl of zesty mayo and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Taste and add more salt, pepper or lime juice if needed.
Just before everything's ready, mix the rocket into the slaw.
When ready, slice the Caribbean style jerk chicken thighs widthways into 2cm thick slices and share between your plates. Spoon over any remaining glaze from the tray.
Serve the honey lime wedges, tangy slaw and any remaining lime wedges alongside.
Enjoy!

Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: A well-loved combination of jerk-spiced chicken, sweet mango chutney, and zesty slaw; though some find the overall dish a little too sweet across all three elements.
- Ease of prep: Straightforward and quick to put together, even for less confident cooks; several reviewers found using an air fryer for both the chicken and wedges sped things up nicely.
- Suggestions: Reduce the honey on the wedges and skip the sugar in the slaw dressing if you prefer less sweetness; adding extra jerk seasoning, a pinch of cayenne, or a longer marinade time will give the chicken more heat and depth.
- Next-day meals: Portions lean on the smaller side for bigger appetites, so consider bulking the meal out with extra chicken thighs, a side of rice, or additional wedges.
- Wedges: Keep the potato pieces large to help them crisp up rather than turn soggy, and apply the honey-lime dressing only in the final few minutes of roasting.
- Slaw: The coleslaw is best eaten fresh; if the cabbage feels tough or the dressing too thin, add a little extra mayo and a squeeze more lime juice to taste.
