🍳 Preparation Steps
  1. 1

    Preheat the oven to 200°C (convection). Place the rack in the center of the oven.

  2. 2

    Salt and pepper generously inside and outside the chicken. Insert 2 garlic cloves and some thyme and rosemary sprigs. Mix softened butter with a spoon of olive oil and carefully brush the skin.

  3. 3

    Wash and brush the potatoes (keep the skin). Cut them in half if necessary. Arrange them around the chicken in a large baking dish. Add the remaining garlic and herbs, drizzle with olive oil, salt and pepper.

  4. 4

    Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. Baste the chicken and potatoes with cooking juices every 20 minutes. Cover with aluminum if browning too quickly.

  5. 5

    Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving. Serve with potatoes and drizzle with cooking juices.

Tips & Tricks
  • Use a cast iron dish for optimal heat distribution
  • Butter mixed with oil ensures perfect browning
