Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Chicken

    Rub the marinade all over the chicken, making sure to get it under the skin and inside the cavity. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into wedges and toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Roast the Chicken and Potatoes

    Place the marinated chicken in a roasting pan. Arrange the potato wedges around the chicken. Roast in the preheated oven for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are golden and crispy.

  5. 5

    Rest and Serve

    Once cooked, let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with the roasted garlic potatoes.
