I have always loved roasted chicken and vegetables, but I never really had a go-to recipe for it. I would often just throw some chicken and vegetables in a roasting pan and hope for the best. But the results were often inconsistent. Sometimes the chicken would be dry, or the vegetables would be undercooked.

Why It Works
  • The chicken is roasted at a high temperature, which helps to brown the skin and seal in the juices.
  • The vegetables are roasted with a blend of herbs and spices, which gives them a delicious flavor.
  • The roasting time is just long enough to cook the chicken through and tenderize the vegetables without overcooking either one.
