Ingredients


Preparation

Rinse chicken; pat dry.

In a heavy iron frying pan, heat oil and butter over medium heat until foamy. Add garlic, lemon juice, a 1x2 inch slice of lemon peel, and nutmeg. Add chicken to pan, breast-side up, and brush lavishly with basting mixture. Put in 350 degree oven to bake. As soon as you put chicken in oven, put potatoes into lightly salted water; parboil for 10 minutes.

Drain, dip cut sides in chicken's pan juices, then set them around the chicken. Baste chicken again, return pan to oven, and bake for 30 to 40 minutes. Baste both chicken and potatoes again at least once while baking.

I used just chicken breasts and they were great. Very moist.

Loved it, easy to make even when I doubled up on the recipe. I added 1 whole valdailia onion, 1/2 yellow and red bell pepper and 3 portobella mushroom caps and it just kicked the flavor up another notch........

Excellent, relatively easy way to roast chicken. Be careful to thoroughly dry the chicken before the intial saute part; if the chicken is wet at all it will spatter a lot.it was great, everyone enjoyed same Russ
