  1. ONE TRAY

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pat the chicken dry with paper towel. In a bowl, combine the chicken, the jerk seasoning, a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Spread pumpkin chunks, and the onion wedges on one side of the roasting tray, coat in oil, and seasoning. Place the chicken on the other side of the tray.
