The roasted chicken thighs with pumpkin cream bring the autumn aroma to the table with the presence of pumpkin, which is definitely the typical autumn vegetable.
The meat stays tender and juicy inside, and crispy on the outside, while the PUMPKIN, made even more velvety with the addition of a small potato, becomes a creamy and delicate-tasting sauce.
It’s a simple but delicious recipe, perfect for a family lunch or a casual dinner with friends. If you want to give the chicken dish more texture and the famous crunchy note, I recommend adding a bit of toasted hazelnut crumbs at the end of cooking, which gives a special aroma.
With a few ingredients, you can create a genuine, tasty, and colorful main course that’s also cost-effective. If you love traditional chicken mains, try the ‘ncip ‘nciap chicken from Marche.
