  • 1 medium onion, cut into ½-inch pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

  • ¾ cup chicken stock or chicken broth
  • ¼ cup dry red wine or apple juice
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon coarse ground black pepper

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. Toss the cubed vegetables and onion with 1 tablespoon of the oil and arrange in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Roast for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are golden brown.
