This roasted chicken and vegetable meal is the kind of dish I turn to when I want something wholesome without spending all evening in the kitchen. It is a wonderful way to get a full meal on the table for the family, and the leftovers are always just as tasty the next day.

My biggest tip for this one is to cut your vegetables into similar sizes. It helps them cook at the same pace so nothing ends up mushy while another piece stays raw.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
  • 4 large potatoes, cut into chunks
  • 3 carrots, sliced into rounds
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 fresh lemon, sliced into rounds
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    Place the chicken pieces, potatoes, carrots, and onions onto a large sheet pan.

  3. 3

    Drizzle everything with olive oil and sprinkle with the oregano, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.

  4. 4

    Toss the ingredients together with your hands so everything is coated well, then arrange the lemon slices on top.

  5. 5

    Roast for 45 to 50 minutes until the chicken is golden and cooked through, and the vegetables are fork tender.

💡 Tips

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. This dish is great served with a side of crusty bread or a crisp green salad.
