2.Defrost the frozen chestnuts. Peel the onion and cut it into big chunks. For the Herb Bouquet, bundle 1 small bunch of flat-leaf parsley, 1 bay leaves and 1 thyme sprig with a piece of cotton twine.
3.Remove the pumpkin from the oven. While it cools down, remove the skin and cut it into big chunks. Increase the oven temperature to 450˚F (230°C)。Mix the pumpkin, onion, chestnuts, olive oil, ½ tsp of salt and ¼ tsp of black pepper on the baking pan. Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 45 minutes.
