Steps:
- Preheat the oven 190c/375F/Gas5.

- You will also need a food processor.
- Crush the fennel seeds and put to one side.
- Chop the parley and put to one side.
- Cut the stalk off the top of the chillies. Snap them in half and put those to one side too.

- ***Please note cooking time is APROX - please read the lable on the chicken. The chicken is only cooked when the juices run clear and you can easily pull the bone from the thighs.
- When cooked, remove the chicken and drain the juices over the pan.
- Also remove half of the vegetables and half of the pineapple and put with the chicken and keep warm.
- Put the remaining vegetables and pineapple from the pan into a food processor with the sugar and balsamic vinegar. Correct the seasoning with a little salt and pepper - if needed.
- Blend to make a lovely sauce. ONLY if needed add a little boiling water to loosen and thin out.
- Remove the chicken from the bone and put onto serving plates - pour over the sauce.

Tips:
- To ensure evenly cooked chicken, use a chicken of uniform size and shape.
- For a crispy skin, pat the chicken dry before roasting.
- Use a roasting pan or Dutch oven large enough to accommodate the chicken comfortably without overcrowding.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature (425°F/220°C) for the first 30 minutes, then reduce the heat to 350°F/175°C to finish cooking. This will help create a golden brown crust while keeping the meat moist and tender.
- To prevent the sauce from burning, stir it occasionally during the cooking process.
- If the sauce becomes too thick, add a little water or chicken broth to thin it out.
- Serve the chicken with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
