(I made this up one night when I just wanted to try something new and had a sweet tooth, but wanted to eat healthy! Remember to use organic and natural foods as much as possible.)
Pre-heat oven to 425 degrees F. You will need a 9x13" glass pan and foil.
6 Chicken thighs (bone in, skin optional)
3 Parsnips (peel if not organic), chunked
6 Carrots (peel if not organic), cut into sticks
1 Red Onion, quartered and halved
1 Blood Orange (Navel ok to substitute), sliced with peel on
1/2 C Balsamic Vinegar
salt and pepper to taste
Place chicken thighs in pan to fit. Dump cut vegetables on top of meat and spread evenly in pan. Pour Balsamic Vinegar evenly over ingredients. Crush fresh salt and pepper over top to taste. Place sliced oranges uniformly on top of all ingredients. Cover in foil. Place on center rack of oven and bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes) or until chicken reaches 165 degrees minimum internally (using meat thermometer).
Serve with brown rice and favorite green salad. Makes 6 servings. Enjoy!
