Great-looking meal, Henrik! That idea to use the grilled lemon and chicken juices in the carrot side dish is pure genius. You sure had some good sippin' and eatin' that night!

Tarragon chicken
Well, I just threw a chicken on my grill, it turned out great. Nothing fancy, I did the dry brine, then inserted a concoction of 1 tbsp canola oil mixed with 1tbsp dried tarragon underneath the skin. Tarragon is a great chicken spice, and this version didn't disappoint me. It is rather thick (the oil/spice mix), so I use a small spoon and my fingers to distribute it as evenly as I can.
Just for inspiration, I started out with some good ole' bourbon, this is one of my three faves from the US of A:
Alright, on to the chicken. Here it is mounted on the chicken stand:
And the 1 tbsp oil / 1 tbsp tarragon mix:
The chicken, just placed it on the grill:
Here it is, close to done, threw in some lemons also:
When the chicken was done, I took some of the juices that gathered in the bottom plate of the chicken stand, and used that to make a carrot puré. I boiled some (3-4) carrots, then mashed them and mixed with 0.3 cups double cream, 3 tbsp chicken juice, som lemon juice and ground cumin. What a nice flavor!
I served it all with broccoli with some sprinkled mature hard cheese, roasted sunflower seeeds and lemon juice.
Nice, clean, simple. All in all, a good grill session.
The plate, ready to serve:
