Equipment

  • Cast Iron Pan

Ingredients
  

  • 4-6 bone-in pastured chicken breasts or thighs 1 per person
  • 4-6 parsnips
  • 4-6 carrots
  • 1/2 red onion sliced
  • 1 small handful peeled whole garlic cloves
  • 1-2 tsp pink salt
  • 2 tsp parsley
  • 2 tsp oregano
  • 2 tsp thyme or rosemary
  • Black pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425°F
  • Cover the chicken pieces with ghee or olive oil and place skin side up in the pan.
  • Cut the parsnips & carrots into halves or thirds, depending on the length and then slice them like thin chips as shown.
  • Slice the onion and add it to the pan with the garlic cloves, parsnips & carrots.
  • Sprinkle everything with parsley, pink salt, a dash of black pepper and oregano, thyme or rosemary. Drizzle it with ghee, refined coconut oil or extra virgin olive oil (very high quality actually has a higher smoke point!) and pop it in the oven at 425°F for 35-40 minutes.
  • Serve with your favorite Dry Farm Wine! ;)
