Delicious Roast Chicken With Potatoes Recipe

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 1 whole chicken (about 4-5 lbs)
  • 4 cups potatoes (cut into wedges)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper (to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (chopped, optional)

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

    Make sure the oven is fully preheated for even cooking.
  2. Prepare the Chicken

    Pat the chicken dry with paper towels and place it in a roasting pan.

    Drying the chicken helps to achieve crispy skin.
  3. Season the Chicken

    Rub the chicken with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

    Make sure to season inside the cavity as well.
  4. Prepare the Potatoes

    Toss the potato wedges with olive oil, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

    Ensure the potatoes are evenly coated for better flavor.
  5. Arrange in Roasting Pan

    Place the seasoned potatoes around the chicken in the roasting pan.

    This allows the potatoes to absorb the chicken juices.
  6. Roast the Chicken

    Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.

    Check the internal temperature; it should reach 165°F (75°C).
  7. Rest and Serve

    Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving with the potatoes.

    Resting allows the juices to redistribute for a juicier chicken.
