- 1/2 head purple cabbage
- 8 slice bacon
- 1 chicken, quartered
- 1 kosher salt
- 1 fresh cracked black pepper

- 1 cup water
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- 2 yellow squash
- Preheat oven to 375.
- Pour 1 cup water into the bottom of a large broiling pan.
- Drop in the bouillon cube.
- Cut the carrots so the chunks are maybe an inch long on the thick end of the carrot and two inches on the skinny side.
- Cut the celery into 1-2 inch chunks.
- Quarter the tomatoes.
- Place into a large mixing bowl the carrots, celery, and small tomatoes (don't bother cutting the tiny tomatoes).
- Pour over them a tablespoon of olive oil, and mix well.
- Place the oiled veggies into the broiling pan.
- Sprinkle kosher salt, cracked pepper, basil, and thyme over them.
- Add the chicken quarters, and season the top sides of them similarly.
- Lay out eight strips of bacon across the contents of the pan.
- Place the tomato quarters skin side up on top.
- Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil (or a lid, if your pan comes with one), and make covered for 20 minutes.
- Remove the pan from the oven and raise the temperature to 400.
- Uncover the pan.
- Cut cabbage up into large chunks and sprinkle it across the roast.
- Replace the roast.
- Bake uncovered for another 25 minutes.
- Always remember to check your chicken's doneness before serving.
- It should reach an internal temperature of 165F.
- The veggies should be a bit crisp still.
