How to Make One-Pan Roast Chicken

Note: The full instructions are provided in the recipe card below.

1. Preheat oven to 475°F and prepare the rack.
2. Mix potatoes, onions, carrots, and seasonings in a bowl.
3. In another bowl, prepare seasoning mix for chicken.
4. Skin and coat chicken with seasoning.
5. Arrange vegetables on a baking sheet, top with chicken.
6. Roast for 35-40 minutes, rotating halfway.
7. Rest chicken covered with foil, stir vegetables in juices, and serve.

Camila's Tips

• If using chicken parts, roast the chicken breasts until they reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit and thighs/drumsticks reach 175 degrees Fahrenheit on an instant-read thermometer, about 35 to 40 minutes. Rotate the pan halfway through cooking.
• Allow the chicken to rest for at least 10-15 minutes after taking it out of the oven. This lets the juices redistribute, ensuring the meat is moist and tender.
• Experiment with different vegetables based on the season. Root vegetables work well in the winter, while asparagus and bell peppers are great for spring and summer roasts.
