Mashed potatoes or squash side-dishes would be perfect with this. Ingredients:
1/3 cup whole grain dijon mustard |
1/3 cup olive oil |
2 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary |
1 7 1/2- to 8-pound roasting chicken, rinsed, giblets removed |
2 large red onions, each cut into 8 wedges, peeled |
1 1/2 pounds small turnips, peeled if desired, each turnip cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces |
1 pound peeled baby carrots |
1 cup canned low-salt chicken broth |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Whisk mustard, oil, and rosemary in bowl. Place chicken in large roasting pan. Brush with half of mustard mixture. Roast until thermometer inserted into thickest part of thigh registers 170°F, about 1 hour 45 minutes.
