Roasted Chicken Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Chicken

   In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, chopped thyme, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.

2. 2

   Roast the Chicken

   Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the marinated chicken on a roasting pan and roast for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Baste occasionally with the juices.

3. 3

   Prepare Mashed Potatoes

   While the chicken is roasting, peel and chop the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

4. 4

   Mash the Potatoes

   Add butter and milk to the drained potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5. 5

   Serve

   Once the chicken is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve alongside garlic mashed potatoes.
