As you might notice by now, my favorite meat is chicken. It’s not just because it is fairly cheap and versatile, but it was my favorite since I can remember. I believe that I have already talked about this (and sorry if I’m repeating the story) but for my brother and me, when we were kids, the chicken was the only meat we would eat. I don’t know why, but my Mom says she could hardly make us eat any other meat than chicken.

And today, we eat all the meat, but the chicken is still my favorite, and you will see a lot of chicken recipes here 🙂

Here is one recipe, that I make pretty often since it’s very easy to put together, and is done fairly quickly. This autumn chicken and root veggies sheet pan dinner are perfect for the busy weeknights and when you don’t want to spend much time in the kitchen, cooking and doing dishes.

Since it’s Autumn, and I like eating seasonally, the root veggies seemed very obvious and delicious, other than pumpkins and squashes. And I was right! I chose to use potatoes, Parisienne carrots, and beets, but you can also add other root veggies like celeriac, sweet potatoes, turnip or something else you like and have on hand.

This sheet pan recipe is perfect since you can have all the ingredients prepped, and when you get home, just combine everything on the tray, pop them in the oven and cook. Easy-peasy!

Another great thing that I think would be of your interest is about chicken. This recipe calls for a whole chicken cut into 6 (or 8) pieces. When buying a whole chicken, you will get it for the much lower price than when you buy the cut-up pieces. So, why not buy a whole chicken and cut it yourself. It is very easy to do! Just follow the simple instructions on this post >> How To Cut Up A Whole Chicken | Step by Step Guide

Ingredients

  • 1 chicken, cut into 6 or 8 pieces
  • 1 kg potatoes
  • 500 g Parisienne carrots
  • 200 g beets
  • 3 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 tsp dried basil

Directions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
  2. Peel the potatoes, wash them and cut into bite-sized pieces.
  3. Scrub the carrots and beets. Cut any large ones to bite-sized pieces. When all the veggies are an approximately same size they will cook more evenly too.
  4. Add all the veggies to the baking tray. Drizzle with olive oil, mix with your hands and spread evenly in one layer.
  5. Nest the chicken cuts in between the veggies and season everything with sea salt and ground black pepper. Sprinkle with dried basil for more flavor.
  6. Place the baking tray in the oven and roast for 40-45 minutes, until the chicken skin is golden brown and all the veggies are cooked through.
  7. Leave to rest for 5-10 minutes, then serve. Enjoy!

Notes

To make sure the chicken is cooked through, I recommend using the instant-read thermometer . The chicken should be 75°C (165°F) at the thickest part of the thigh or breast.

The second way to check the chicken for doneness is to just pierce the thickest part of the thigh with a tip of the knife. If the juice that comes out is clear, the chicken is done. If it has any red or pink color, you need to roast your chicken more.
