Ingredients

2 tablespoons Butter

1 teaspoon dried sage

1 clove Garlic crushed

1/8 teaspoon Black pepper

1 whole Chicken (3 lb. 5 oz.)

1 teaspoon Dried rosemary

1 Onion peeled

2 cups Chicken broth

6 ounces Baby new potatoes parboiled

3 Bell pepper deseeded and quartered

2 medium Zucchini cut into chunks

1 Red onion sliced

1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375F. In a small bowl, combine butter, sage, garlic and pepper. Carefully loosen the skin from the chicken breast, being careful not to tear it. 2. Spread half of the herb mixture under the skin; rub the rest on top. Sprinkle with rosemary. Place onion in chicken cavity and tie legs together with kitchen string. 3. Place the chicken on a rack in a roasting pan and pour broth into pan. Cover pan with foil and roast for 1 hour. 4. Uncover chicken and roast until juices run clear when meat is pierced, about 40 minutes longer. Transfer to a serving dish. Let stand 15 minutes before serving. 5. Meanwhile, place the parboiled new potatoes, peppers, zucchini and onion slices on a separate baking tray. Drizzle with the oil and then roast for 35-40 minutes until cooked and crisp around the edges. Arrange around the chicken, along with the parsley, to serve.
