Stuck on a quick main dish? Melt 1 Tbsp ghee in a cast iron skillet then arrange 4 whole chicken legs in it, sprinkle with salt, pepper, paprika and fresh rosemary. Place in the oven with the carrots.  They’ll be done at the same time! {of course always check your meat’s temperature to be sure it’s cooked through}
