This Roast Chicken and Vegetables recipe is undeniably everyone’s favorite and a staple serving whenever I visit family or we have a Sunday gathering.
I have included my personal chicken rub for you to use as an option or you can coat your chicken in any generic roast seasoning. The smell of the chicken roasting with its crispy skin and juicy meat, add your favorite mix of chopped vegetables for a simple meal turned into a feast!
To make Roast Chicken and Vegetables, you will need the following ingredients:
Preheat oven to 450 °F.
Spread chopped vegetables around the base of a 9x13-inch roasting pan, drizzle 2 tablespoons olive oil over and season with salt and pepper, ½ teaspoon Italian herbs or 1 tablespoon fresh herbs.
In a mixing bowl, combine ingredients for chicken rub mix. Rub chicken with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and chicken rub mix or chicken seasoning. Coat well. Transfer to the roasting pan, breast side up, on top of the vegetables.
Roast in the preheated oven for 12 minutes at 450 °F.
Lower oven heat to 350 °F and roast for about 75-80 minutes until the inner thigh reaches an internal temperature of 165 °F.
Remove chicken from heat and set aside for 15 minutes to rest.
Carve the chicken and serve hot!
