    Wash and pat dry the chicken. Season with salt and pepper, then brush with 2 tbsp sunflower oil. Place in a greased baking dish and roast in the preheated oven for 40 minutes.

    Meanwhile, cut the pumpkin into larger wedges. Wash, peel, and quarter the potatoes lengthwise. Rinse the Jerusalem artichokes under running water using a brush. Peel and halve the garlic cloves.
