HERB ROASTED CHICKEN WITH VEGETABLES AND WINE (CROCK POT)

Steps:
- Mix olive oil, thyme, rosemary, oregano, and paprika in a bowl. Divide herb mixture in half, pouring half into a separate bowl, and stir lime juice into one of the halves. Pour each half into a separate large plastic resealable bag. Place chicken pieces into the bag without the lime juice; squeeze excess air out of bag and seal.
- Place onions and red bell peppers into a resealable plastic bag and pour half the marinade containing lime juice into the bag. Place broccoli, asparagus, and garlic into another resealable plastic bag and pour remaining lime juice marinade over vegetables. Squeeze excess air from both bags and seal. Refrigerate chicken and both bags of vegetables at least 2 hours to overnight.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Transfer red bell peppers and onions to a baking dish; transfer broccoli, asparagus, and garlic to a separate baking dish. Bake both dishes of vegetables in the preheated oven for 20 minutes; stir and roast 10 more minutes. Remove vegetables from oven.
- Transfer marinated chicken into a roasting pan, shaking off excess marinade and discarding used marinade. Scatter fingerling potatoes around chicken pieces. Roast chicken for 30 minutes and flip chicken pieces and potatoes.
- Distribute all the vegetables into the roasting pan with the chicken pieces and potatoes. Roast until the chicken juices run clear, chicken is no longer pink inside, and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the thickest piece of chicken reads at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C), about 30 more minutes. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

HERB-ROASTED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large bowl combine oil, rosemary, salt and pepper until well blended. Add chicken, mushrooms, potatoes, onions, red pepper and garlic; toss until well coated. divide mixture into 2 baking or roasting pans. Roast until chicken and vegetables are tender, about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally and rotating pans on shelves once during roasting. Remove four cups mixture for chicken pot pie.
Tips:
- Choose the right chicken. A whole chicken is ideal for this recipe, but you can also use chicken breasts or thighs. If using a whole chicken, be sure to remove the giblets and pat the chicken dry before cooking.
- Use fresh herbs. Fresh herbs will give your chicken and vegetables the best flavor. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but be sure to use half the amount.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When roasting the chicken and vegetables, be sure to leave enough space between them so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the chicken and vegetables will steam instead of roast.
- Roast the chicken and vegetables until they are cooked through. The chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. The vegetables are cooked through when they are tender and slightly browned.
Conclusion:
Herb roasted chicken and vegetables is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The chicken is roasted with a variety of fresh herbs, which gives it a flavorful and aromatic crust. The vegetables are roasted alongside the chicken, and they soak up all of the delicious juices.
