A crowd pleaser. Perfect for large get-togethers (double recipe) or just for a family dinner. Please note: I do not have a double oven, thus 1 1/2 hour cook time.

Time 3h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons ground thyme
2 teaspoons dried rosemary
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons paprika
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 whole chicken, cut into 6 pieces - rinsed and dried with paper towels
2 onions, cut into 1-inch thick slices
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch wide strips
2 cups broccoli florets
1 bunch fresh asparagus, 2-inch tips only
6 cloves garlic, peeled
2 cups fingerling potatoes
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Mix olive oil, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and paprika in a bowl. Divide herb mixture in half, pouring half into a separate bowl, and stir lime juice into one of the halves. Pour each half into a separate large plastic resealable bag. Place chicken pieces into the bag without the lime juice; squeeze excess air out of bag and seal.
  • Place onions and red bell peppers into a resealable plastic bag and pour half the marinade containing lime juice into the bag. Place broccoli, asparagus, and garlic into another resealable plastic bag and pour remaining lime juice marinade over vegetables. Squeeze excess air from both bags and seal. Refrigerate chicken and both bags of vegetables at least 2 hours to overnight.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Transfer red bell peppers and onions to a baking dish; transfer broccoli, asparagus, and garlic to a separate baking dish. Bake both dishes of vegetables in the preheated oven for 20 minutes; stir and roast 10 more minutes. Remove vegetables from oven.
  • Transfer marinated chicken into a roasting pan, shaking off excess marinade and discarding used marinade. Scatter fingerling potatoes around chicken pieces. Roast chicken for 30 minutes and flip chicken pieces and potatoes.
  • Distribute all the vegetables into the roasting pan with the chicken pieces and potatoes. Roast until the chicken juices run clear, chicken is no longer pink inside, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece of chicken reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 30 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

This dish was a hit at my last book club gathering! The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the vegetables were roasted to perfection. I especially loved the crispy bits of rosemary and thyme.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I would recommend making a few changes. I added more garlic and thyme, and I roasted the vegetables at a higher temperature for a crispier texture.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the chicken came out dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not usually a fan of roasted chicken, but this recipe changed my mind. The herb rub was amazing, and the chicken was cooked perfectly. I'll definitely be making this again.
