Instructions

Preheat Oven & Prepare the Chicken:
- Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).

Assemble & Roast:
- Arrange the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a large baking sheet or oven-safe skillet.
- Place the chicken pieces on top of the potatoes, skin-side up.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) and the potatoes are tender.

- Remove from oven, let rest for 5 minutes, then serve warm.
Notes
- Use bone-in, skin-on chicken for the best flavor and juiciness.
- Swap baby potatoes for sweet potatoes or carrots for variety.
- Garnish with fresh parsley or a squeeze of lemon for extra brightness.
