Chicken Roasted on a Bed of Vegetables – The Perfect One-Pot Meal for Christmas

Christmas Roast!

How can I celebrate Christmas without a roast!

• Chicken
• a mix of vegetables (like onions, garlic, carrots, beans, potatoes and/or cauliflower)
• olive oil
• ginger-garlic paste
• salt and pepper, to taste
• dried herbs (thyme, rosemary, oregano)

Wash and prep your preferred vegetables and cut into bite-sized pieces. Make a bed for the chicken pieces by arranging the vegetables on the bottom of a baking dish. Sprinkle with olive oil, salt, pepper and herbs.

Rub the chicken with olive oil. Sprinkle the chicken pieces generously with salt and pepper and ginger-garlic paste and place on top of vegetables.

Bake for 30 minutes at 250c or until chicken is done. Let the chicken pieces rest on a serving platter. Mix vegetables in the baking dish and roast 5-10 minutes longer if needed.

Enjoy!!
