Ingredients
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F) with the rack in the middle of the oven.
  2. Put the chicken breasts in a medium size bowl.
  3. Add the salt, ground pepper, chopped chilies and fresh oregano leaves. Toss them together.
  4. Take a 3L baking dish and arrange the breasts side by side in the dish.
  5. Wash and dry the butternut squash. Quarter it and carefully remove all the seeds. I find it easiest to scrape with a tablespoon.
  6. Slice each quarter as thin as you can and snugly fit the slices around the chicken.
  7. Mix together 1/4 cup of milk and heavy cream. Pour it carefully over the butternut squash slices, all around, avoiding the chicken.
  8. Season with the nutmeg, salt and pepper.
  9. Drizzle with a little olive oil.
  10. Cook for 30-35 minutes, serve hot.
