Things You'll Need

  • Stoneware baking dish with lid
  • Whole chicken, cut up into individual parts
  • Olive oil
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 4 large sprigs of rosemary, whole fresh
  • 4 large cloves of garlic, minced
  • Chicken broth or dry red wine
  • 4 large potatoes, quartered
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 1 large onion, peeled and diced into 1/4-inch pieces
  • Paper towels

Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. Pat chicken parts dry with a paper towel. Apply a light, even coat of olive oil.

  3. Arrange chicken parts in stoneware dish. Place dark meat pieces (legs and thighs) around the edge of the pan with white meat (breast) in the middle. This will provide more heat for the dark meat and a lower cooking temperature for the white meat, which should produce moist chicken.

  4. Cover chicken pieces evenly with minced garlic. Break the rosemary into short lengths and tuck in and around the chicken pieces.

  5. Arrange vegetables evenly in the dish. Potatoes will need to cook longer, so place them closer to the outside with carrots in the middle.

  6. Pour either chicken broth or wine over the chicken and vegetables until they are barely covered.

  7. Cover and place dish into heated oven. Check periodically with a kitchen thermometer until the dark meat registers 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove and season with salt and pepper to taste.
