I adapted this from a number of recipes of fried chicken popular in the South of Thailand. The marinated chicken could alternatively be fried submerged in very hot vegetable oil but I was feeling health-conscious so I decided to roast it in the oven instead. This is traditionally served with aromatic fried shallots (which I also baked), steamed glutinous rice and optionally sweet chili sauce.

Roast Chicken Dinner Roast Chicken Dinner
A simple roast chicken with root vegetables. Deeply savory and satisfying. I find that despite the allure of roasting the chicken over the vegetables for a "one pan" meal, cooking them separate gives you the best of both, and lets you reserve the juices from the chicken to make a simple gravy. Trussing taken from chefsteps. I like to serve this with a hearty salad of kale and shaved brussels sprouts with pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, and a poppyseed dressing.
