Roasted Chicken With Maple Roasted Veggies

1. 1

   In the morning before dinner, generously season your chicken with kosher salt. Let sit on a plate open in your fridge for a few hours. The salt helps season the meat and dries the skin so it will be crispy.

2. 2

   Preheat your oven to 425 (or 400 for convection). On a baking sheet place your chicken and drizzle it with olive oil. Roast for 30 minutes. Toss onion, carrots, and delicate squash with olive oil, salt and pepper. Add thyme. Add onion, carrots and delicate squash to baking sheet. Roast for 30-40 (time may be shorter for convection - start testing it after 20-25 minutes - you don't want to overcook your chicken.) more minutes until the veggies are caramelized and chicken is cooked through and crispy (this will depend on the size of your chicken - it should be 180 degrees in the thigh).

3. 3

   Remove the chicken and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Drizzle maple syrup on roasted veggies. Toss and put on a large platter.

4. 4

   carve the chicken - I like to remove the legs and thighs then cut off the breast and chop into 4 pieces. Place chicken atop maple veggies.
