  • 1 1/4 cups halved bottled chestnuts
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil

Super-simple but just different enough for a special meal. Prepped mid-afternoon and kept at room temp til ready to bake. Served with rib roast (crusted with rosemary, thyme, shallot, garlic) for Christmas dinner.

I really enjoyed this flavor of this dish and it was very easy to make. A nice change from the usual roasted winter vegetables.

Prepared this for Christmas dinner and the family (meat-eaters, vegetarians, celiacs, and veggie phobes alike) loved it.
