INGREDIENTS
1 chicken leg (approx 190g)
1/2 cup creamy mashed potatoes (approx 125g)
1/2 cup sliced rainbow carrots (approx 70g)
1 teaspoon olive oil
2 sprigs fresh rosemary
2 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cloves garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Pat the chicken leg dry and season generously with salt, pepper, minced garlic, and chopped rosemary and thyme leaves. Drizzle with olive oil.
Place the seasoned chicken leg on a baking sheet. Arrange the sliced rainbow carrots around the chicken, tossing them lightly with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
Roast in the oven for about 35-40 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the carrots are tender and slightly caramelized.
While the chicken is roasting, prepare the creamy mashed potatoes. If using pre-cooked potatoes, mash them with a bit of seasoning, a splash of olive oil, and a small amount of water or low-fat milk if desired.
Plate the herb-roasted chicken leg alongside a serving of the creamy mashed potatoes and roasted rainbow carrots.
Garnish with a fresh sprig of rosemary or thyme for an extra burst of flavor and serve warm.
