Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees, with racks set in middle and lower thirds. On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss potatoes, carrots, shallots, garlic, and a few sprigs of thyme with 2 tablespoons oil. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- In an ovenproof skillet, toss onions with remaining tablespoon oil. Place chicken, breast side up, on top of onions. Season cavity and exterior of chicken with salt and pepper; stuff with a few sprigs of thyme. Scatter remaining thyme over chicken and onions. Using kitchen twine, tie legs together; tuck wing tips under bird.
- Roast chicken on middle rack and vegetables on lower rack, occasionally brushing chicken with pan juices and tossing vegetables, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in thickest part of a thigh (avoiding bone) registers 165 degrees, 50 to 60 minutes.
- Let chicken rest 10 minutes; carve, and serve with vegetables and pan juices.
