This is an awesome toss-together main dish with five-star results. I didn't have have a whole roaster chicken but wanted all the flavor and crispy chicken skin one would expect from a roasted chicken. It turned out juicy, tender and seasoned just right with perfectly browned, crisp skin to top it all off. I roasted the chicken atop a layer of quartered potatoes and onions, which turned out tender and full of flavor from cooking in the chicken juices. My hubby declared this finger-licking, extra napkin-needing delicious, and I hope you enjoy too!
