SEE HE BIG HOLE ON THE PLATE THERE....THATS WHERE THE GIANT HUNK OF BREAD SLATHERED IN BUTTER WENT!
Okay so pay no mind to the above version, that was the version my non green vegetable eating husband likes but I'm tell you the vegetable eating version. Actually this is just a method of cooking and once you learn how then the options are limitless. I'll first list the base recipe because you need 3 staples and then I'll tell you where I go from there. This is a rustic recipe, meaning that your cuts and cubes and chops don't need to be uniform, the less symmetric and exact they are the better the dish.
1 package chicken
4-5 peeled and cubed potatoes
1 whole onion chopped into large pieces (you want to be able to put a good size piece on your fork)
5-6 whole cloves of garlic peeled
Poultry seasoning
Salt
Pepper
Cayenne
Garlic powder
Crushed red pepper
Olive oil
Chedder cheese
After this what I recommend is
3 carrots peeled and chunked
4 celery stalks chunked
1/2 head cauliflower chunked up
1 package mushrooms halved
Asparagus chunked
Pre-heat oven to 390. Put everything in a baking dish and cover with olive oil and above seasonings to your desire (I prefer more fresh garlic less garlic salt, and then do the cayenne and crushed pepper to your desire). Cover with foil and bake for 30 min. Open and turn chicken and stir veggies, recover and put in for another 20 minutes. If chicken is almost done after this remove foil and bake uncovered for 10-15 minutes until all veggies and chicken have a nice golden brown color. As soon as you plate it top with a bit of cheddar cheese for extra flavor on the veggies.
I think this is a great recipe to do with chicken on the bone and with skin because then the skin crisps. However if you prefer breasts I would cut the cooking time by about 20 minutes so it doesn't dry out. You can use any veggies you like in this dish and make a different meal each time just by changing the veggies. This is a quick and easy one dish meal. Clean up is a cinch. Also if your a vegetarian you can make this meal and then reserve part of the veggies and put them on a separate baking dish. bake for same amount of time. Veggies will taste damn amazing roasted like this...seriously you will never eat another veggie that isn't roasted.
