LEMON AND HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH BABY POTATOES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Rinse the chicken with cool water, inside and out, then pat it dry with paper towels. Season the cavity with salt and pepper, and then stuff the lemon, garlic, and herbs inside. Place the chicken, breast-side up, in a roasting pan. Tie the legs of the chicken together with kitchen twine to help hold its shape. Toss the potatoes around the chicken. Season the whole thing with a fair amount of salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Roast the chicken and potatoes for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Don't forget to baste the chicken with the drippings and rotate the pan every 20 minutes or so to insure a golden crispy skin. The chicken is done when an instant-read thermometer says 165 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the thigh (the legs of the chicken should wiggle easily from the sockets too.) Remove the chicken to a platter and let stand for 10 minutes, so the juices settle back into the meat before carving. Serve with the roasted potatoes on the side.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the potatoes on a baking sheet and drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil all over the potatoes. Sprinkle the garlic powder and some salt and pepper on top. Toss with your hands to coat all sides of the potatoes with the oil and seasoning. Bake, rotating the pan and flipping the potatoes halfway through, until fork-tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, add the remaining teaspoon olive oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper onto the chicken breasts and gently pat it down with your fingers. Add the chicken breasts to the hot skillet and brown on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and reduce the heat to low.
- Melt the butter in the skillet then sprinkle flour on top of the butter. Whisk to cook off the raw flour taste, 1 minute, then carefully add the chicken stock, vigorously whisking. Add the lemon zest and juice. Let cook, whisking occasionally, until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the asparagus to the pot and cook until the asparagus has softened but is still bright green, about 7 minutes.
- Add the chicken back into the skillet and cook to ensure it's cooked thoroughly, another 3 minutes. Coat the chicken with sauce from the pan.
- Place 1 piece of chicken on each of 2 plates, then divide the roasted potatoes between the plates next to the chicken. Place half of the asparagus on each plate and drizzle some sauce on top. Use the juice of the remaining lemon half on top of the dish if you desire more lemon flavor.

LEMON AND HERB-ROASTED CHICKEN AND POTATOES
My go-to weekend dinner recipe. Chicken packed with citrus flavor plus potatoes. The first half of the process can be done in an Instant Pot®, and the second half in the oven for even browning. Or you can use an iron skillet throughout.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Rub chicken with 1 tablespoon lemon juice, sea salt, and pepper. Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®) and select Saute function. Add oil and place the chicken in the pot, skin-side down. Cook for 5 minutes. Turn over and cook until chicken releases some juices and the skin is lightly browned, about 5 minutes more. Add broth. Transfer chicken to a baking dish.
- Add potatoes, remaining lemon juice, lemon slices, oregano, parsley, rosemary, thyme, 2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and garlic to the pressure cooker. Cook and stir until flavors blend, about 3 minutes. Add cilantro and mix well. Spoon mixture on top of the chicken in the baking dish. Ensure the potatoes are well-coated with herbs. Cover the dish with a piece of aluminum foil and poke a few holes in it.
- Bake in the preheated oven until chicken is brown on the outside and no longer pink on the inside, and potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Serve hot.
