Roasted Chicken with Cauliflower and Chickpeas

It was so chilly and fall-like tonight that I wanted to make something for dinner using the oven – preferably with roasted vegetables. I have a great recipe I got from Everyday Food magazine: Roasted Chicken with Cauliflower and Chickpeas.I hadn’t made it in awhile and I’ve been craving toasty caramelized chickpeas and cauliflower.

Its super simple – all it takes are chicken pieces (I used all thighs), cherry tomatoes, cauliflower, red onion and chickpeas. I added purple potatoes as well since cauliflower isn’t a favorite for some people dining tonight. However, my daughter ended up trying some and decided that she loved it, saying “from now on, on the nights that we don’t have broccoli can we have cauliflower”? Uh, okay!

The finished plate – messy presentation, but it tasted yummy!
