TUSCAN ROASTED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLES
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Cut the tomatoes lengthwise into quarters and remove the seeds. Trim the zucchini and cut it in half crosswise and then cut each piece in half lengthwise once if the piece is thin and twice if it is thicker, so that the pieces are relatively uniform.
- Remove the outermost layer of the fennel bulb and discard. Cut the bulb in half so that each half retains part of the stem end. Cut each half into 8 thin wedges so each wedge is held together by a little piece of stem.
- Put the vegetables into a large baking pan. Toss them with 2 tablespoons oil and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Arrange the chicken pieces in the pan with the vegetables.
- In a small bowl combine 1 tablespoon of oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, the garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice. Rub the mixture into the chicken in the pan. Season with a few turns of pepper.
- Roast in the oven for 30 minutes, then give the vegetables a stir and add the rosemary. Cook for about 20 to 30 minutes more until the chicken is done and the vegetable are tender and beginning to brown.
- Yield: 4 servings (A serving is one piece of chicken and 1 1/2 cups of vegetables)

ROASTED TUSCAN CHICKEN DINNER
When an Italian friend shared many years ago that she often added Italian sausages to her pan of baked chicken, I had to give it a try! The sausages give the chicken an amazing flavor. Over the years, I've turned it into a one-dish meal by adding potatoes, onions and peppers, and it has become a family favorite that I often use for holidays, spur of the moment company and Sunday dinners. -Teri Lindquist, Gurnee, Illinois

Steps:
- Set up a grill for cooking with direct and indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Place a large cast-iron pan on the direct-heat side of the grill to preheat.
- Sprinkle the chicken with salt and pepper on both sides. Add a film of olive oil to the pan, followed by the chicken pieces, skin-side down. Allow the chicken to deeply brown, 4 to 5 minutes, then flip and add the garlic. Briefly sauté until fragrant, then deglaze with the vermouth. Scatter in the tomatoes, olives and oregano bundle. Add the chicken stock and season with salt and pepper. Move the pan to the indirect-heat side of the grill and close the lid. Allow to cook until the chicken is cooked through and the internal temperature reads 160 degrees F, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter. Discard the oregano bundle. Top with the basil and serve.

Steps:
- Combine oil, garlic, lemon zest and juice. Coat chicken with this, plus grind a few turns of pepper over it. At this point you can let it marinate up to a day or cook it right away (I like to let it marinate). When ready for baking, sprinkle a little salt over the chicken.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
- Roast chicken for 20 minutes, then add the fresh herbs. Cook for about 25 more minutes, or until chicken is cooked through. If you use bone-in chicken breasts, you will need to increase the cooking time.

Tips:
- Use a whole chicken for the most flavorful results. A whole chicken will give you more meat and bones to work with, resulting in a more flavorful broth and gravy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. When roasting the chicken, make sure to give it enough space so that the air can circulate all around it. This will help the chicken to cook evenly and prevent it from steaming.
- Roast the chicken at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin and juicy meat.
- Use a variety of vegetables. Feel free to mix and match your favorite vegetables for this recipe. Some good options include potatoes, carrots, onions, celery, and broccoli.
- Make sure the vegetables are cut into均匀sizes. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Season the vegetables well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, and herbs to season the vegetables. This will help to bring out their natural flavors.
- Roast the vegetables until they are tender. Depending on the type of vegetables you are using, this could take anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes.
- Serve the chicken and vegetables with a simple sauce. A good option is a gravy made from the pan drippings. You could also serve the chicken and vegetables with a simple lemon butter sauce.
Conclusion:
This Roasted Tuscan Chicken Dinner is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The chicken is roasted to perfection and the vegetables are roasted until they are tender and flavorful. The combination of flavors in this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
