Oven Roasted Chicken and Potatoes Recipe

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Step 2

Remove the giblets from the chicken then pat the chicken dry with a paper towel. Stick a half lemon in the cavity of the chicken. Tie the legs together with a piece of string and tuck the wings underneath. Season with salt and pepper over the entire chicken.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, add the room temperature butter, salt, garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, and onion powder. Use a fork and mash all the ingredients together until smooth.

Step 4

Place chicken into a glass baking dish, dutch oven, or cast-iron skillet and smear the garlic herb butter over the entire bird.

Step 5

Place cut potatoes, onions, and carrots into a large bowl and add the avocado oil and garlic salt. Toss, then add the veggies around the chicken.

Step 6

Bake in a preheated oven for about 45-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F in the thickest spot. If the skin on the chicken begins to brown before it is done, cover loosely with aluminum foil and continue to bake.

Step 7

Remove the chicken and let it rest for at least 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
