Ingredients

3 1/2 - 4 lb whole chicken or 4- 6 thighs
Salt and pepper, to taste (for the chicken and potatoes)
5 garlic cloves, crushed (3 for the chicken and 2 for the potatoes)
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, finely chopped (reserve half for the chicken, the other half for the potatoes)
5 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (3 for the chicken, 2 for the potatoes)
2 lb red or white baby potatoes

Directions

1

Preheat the oven to 375 °F.
2

Season the chicken with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix 3 of the crushed garlic cloves and 1 1/2 tablespoon of rosemary with 3 tablespoons of oil and spread it over the chicken skin. Put the chicken in a plastic bag and marinate in the rosemary spread for 2 hours. You may also marinate overnight, if you prefer.
3

Put the chicken, breast up, in a pan and bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes.
4

Cut the potatoes in half, or leave them whole, and season with salt and pepper. In a small, oven-safe dish combine the 2 tablespoons of olive oil with the 2 cloves of crushed garlic and 1/2 tablespoon of finely chopped rosemary. Spread it over the potatoes, thoroughly coating them. Use your hands or a spatula if necessary.
5

When the chicken has roasted for an hour, add the potatoes to the oven, or sauté them in a frying pan over low heat.
