Serves: 8
1 Place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425°F. Rinse the chestnuts and pat them dry. Place the chestnuts flat-side down on a cutting board. Carefully cut an X on the top of each with the tip of a small sharp knife.
2 Place the chestnuts on a large sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Fold one end over the other to enclose the chestnuts. Fold the ends over to seal. Place the package in a baking pan. Roast the chestnuts until tender when pierced with a small knife, about 45 to 60 minutes.
3 Transfer the foil package to a cooling rack. Leave the chestnuts wrapped in the foil for 10 minutes. Serve hot.
