An excellent recipe, however we found that the chicken was a little on the dry side. When we make this one in the future, I'll roast the chicken breast side down to take advantage of the moisture in the bottom of the pan.

    Delicious! I made a few adjustments. I stuffed the chicken with lemon and onions and added some extra herbs and seasonings (thyme, chili powder, garlic powder) and squeezed some lemon juice over the chicken since I didn't have lemon pepper. I used less oil and skipped the chicken broth as well and it came out fine. The skin was crispy and the meat was juicy and wonderful. And the vegetables were really tasty too. Thank you!

    You've done it again, Paula. This is a keeper. Served this for New Years day dinner. I was serving a risotto, so left out the potatoes and added some Brussels sprouts the last half hour, and let them roast. I didn't have lemon pepper so squeezed some lemon juice over everything. The flavors were great! The nice thing about this recipe, is you can vary the vegies to taste. I will try parsnip and baby beets next time. Thanks for posting what is going to be a staple here!

    Awesome chicken. So moist and tender, it just fell apart.The only change I made was not to add the rutabaga since I didn't have one and I added paprika as a spice.The flavor was sooo good.Thanks for the wonderful chicken recipe.
