INGREDIENTS
1 Chicken Leg (150g)
50g Carrot
50g Parsnip
50g Beet
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/4 cup Chickpeas
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Pat the chicken leg dry with paper towels. Season with salt, pepper, and your choice of herbs (such as rosemary and thyme) for extra flavor.
In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped carrot, parsnip, and beet. Drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Arrange the seasoned chicken leg and the root vegetables on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring the vegetables are spread out in a single layer for even roasting.
Roast in the oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F and the vegetables are tender and lightly caramelized.
In the last 5 minutes of roasting, sprinkle the chickpeas over the vegetables to warm through and absorb the flavors.
Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your crispy roasted chicken leg paired with a vibrant mix of root vegetables!
