… it’s a busy week for me this week as we have a big launch for Glenmorangie on Thursday, then I have a brand new supperclub to attend on Friday followed by the fabulous Fire and Knives, Mixed Grill event on Saturday… there will lots to report back on but until then I leave you with this mid-week treat…
… and a final use of all that beetroot, this time with my favourite chicken thighs and drumsticks…
… I’m not even going to bore you with a recipe… quite simply chop your favourite veg into a roasting tin, include 2 large raw beetroot, which you cut up into wedges, season, add fresh herbs and olive oil, sit the chicken portions on top and roast for an hour or so until golden… I added my usual glass of white wine half way through the cooking time which, with the beetroot juices, made the most spectacular deep red gravy… other than that, this is good, old fashioned, simple fabulousness!
… oh and a quick not on peeling veg… don’t bother… they’re about to get roasted to smithereens anyway… and all the goodness is there, right under the skin…
… eat and of course, enjoy!
looks wonderful….

This looks so beautiful! It would be perfect around autumn time because of the colours.
Beautiful. My kind of meal. I've got beets on my grocery list, by the way.
very beautiful dish. Love the colour combination.
Also one of my standard dishes. It cooks all by itself and comes out wonderfully!
You go Tess. Good luck. They're not to everyones taste and remember to buy raw not pickled ( unless you're a fan of pickled stuff)
yum yum yum
Another winner Dom!
I'm trying to devise a way to choose a cookbook without cheating – maybe build a book tower!!
Dom, the roast looks beautiful and delicious. Good luck with all that's happening at the moment. You take care.
Looks delicious. Really sorry you didn't get through on the programme – more fool them!
Looks so good. I really like chicken thighs myself. They produce just so much juice.
Perfect meal! Did my shopping today – bought chicken breasts – now really wishing I got thighs. Hmmm.
Glenmorangie! Does this mean you'll be visiting my neck of the woods? Would be greatr to see you if you are ;0)
PS – Lurvly roast chicken ;0)
I love this picture … the lighting is perfect and those colors are beautiful … love a good roasted pot.
thanks you thank you… just back from exhausting event… high as a kite on whisky…
@chele… event was down in London but we do come to Edinburgh on occasion… i'll let you know next time!
Unbeetable! (Sorry, couldn't resist!) Hope your busy week went well x
One of my favourite suppers – chicken and roast veg all in one pan – infinitely variable and always delicious. Like the plate Dom!
