POTATOES THAT TASTE BETTER THAN THE CHICKEN



Potatoes That Taste Better Than the Chicken image

This delicious recipe for chicken and potatoes is courtesy of chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten in his appearance on the Martha Stewart show. It is the best roasted chicken I've ever made, and the potatoes are to die for. I did not remove the wings when I made this, and I increased the cooking time to 25 minutes per side to make sure it was done. I also used olive oil instead of grapeseed oil with great results, and regular sea salt instead of fleur de sel was just fine. Enjoy!
