The Omnivores' Diary

Saturday is the time the family gets together. At least.. for us. And so I had to prepare something for their growling tummies.  There's chicken breast in the freezer, asparagus, carrots and bacon. Why not grill the veggies? And roast the chicken? Inspired by  saltimbocca - a dish made of pork, chicken or veal, wrapped with prosciutto, sage and parmesan, as well as the ingredients already available inside my refrigerator.. I came up with this. Ingredients: Chicken breast with skin-on- 4 pcs Oil or Butter Asparagus - 1 bundle Carrots - 1 250 g. piece (large) Dried Rosemary- 1 tablespoon Salt and Pepper Bacon - 8 pcs Well this won't be complete without any sauce, would it? and so, I made gravy out of the pan drippings and then added orange juice and zest for a different contrast to the salty main course. Ingredients: Pan drippings Flour Chicken cube and water or chicken stock  Orange zest Fresh Orange juice Prepare everythin
