Instructions
Preheat your oven to 200 degrees celsius (400 Fahrenheit)
Prepare your vegetables: Quarter your onions, take the top off the heads of garlic, chop potatoes and carrots so they are on similar size (around golf ball size).
Arrange your vegetables in a large rimmed baking or roasting tray.
Pat the chicken breasts dry, add to the tray with the vegetables
Drizzle on the olive oil and ensure all the vegetables and chicken get a good oiling.
Sprinkle on the dried italian herbs and salt to season
Bake in a 200 degree celsius oven for 30 minutes.
Add the frozen peas and bake for a further 5 minutes.
Notes
Potatoes: To make prep for this meal super fast I choose small roasting potatoes, but you can choose larger potatoes and cut them to size. The potatoes can also be substituted for any of your favourite root vegetables. (K?mara, Sweet Potato, Yams, Parsnip)
Red onions: Brown onions will also work just fine
Italian Dried Herbs: The dried herb mix I use includes: Marjoram, Thyme, Rosemary, Savory, Sage, Oregano and Basil
To make a quick chicken gravy to go with your roasted chicken tray bake you will need:
2 Tablespoons plain flour
2 Tablespoons butter
½ teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
1 cup chicken stock (heated)
Melt the butter in a small saucepan
Add the flour, onion powder and herbs, and mix into the butter with either a wooden spoon or whisk (whichever you prefer, cook for 1 minute)
Continue stirring and stir in half of the warm chicken stock, once this is combined add the remaining stock.
If any liquid is present in the bottom of your roasting tray you can drain it off into the gravy as well
