PERFECT ROASTED CHICKEN AND ROOT VEGETABLES
Every time I make this recipe for the family or guests they absolutely go nuts for it! It is incredibly moist and delicious! I hope you enjoy it as well. The recipe was inspired by Emeril Lagasse and tweaked to perfection by me. You can use a chicken ranging in weight from 3 1/2 to 7+pounds. Double the amount of the paste ingredients if you make the larger bird. Cooking time will vary depending on the size of the chicken. Use as many root vegetables as you like. They can cook along with the chicken.

ROASTED CHICKEN WITH ROOT VEGETABLES
I always wanted to learn to make an excellent roasted chicken at home. I tried to find a recipe that is quick and easy, but in the process, I didn't lose the flavors of the chicken. I could not see any that had a few steps or ingredients. This is a recipe I came up with after trying many different methods. I used to buy a lot of rotisserie chicken, but after I learned this easy chicken dish, I don't think I will ever go back. The chicken turns out to be flavorful and juicy. It can be served with the vegetables as a main dish or use it in other recipes that have chicken in them.

Continue to roast until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:
- Choose the right vegetables: For the best results, select firm and fresh root vegetables. Look for beets, carrots, parsnips, and turnips that are smooth and free of blemishes.
- Roast the vegetables properly: To ensure that the vegetables are cooked evenly and caramelized, toss them with olive oil and roast them at a high temperature. Keep an eye on them so that they don't burn.
- Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what brings all the flavors together in this salad. Make sure to use a good quality olive oil and vinegar. You can also add herbs, spices, or citrus to taste.
- Don't overcook the chicken: Chicken is best when it is cooked through but still juicy. Overcooking will make it dry and tough.
- Assemble the salad just before serving: This will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.
