Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a 13x9x2-inch baking pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. (5 minutes)

02

Step
2 mins

Place chicken pieces in the prepared pan. Brush with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. (2 minutes)

03

Step
3 mins

In a medium bowl, combine dried basil, dried rosemary, and garlic salt. Sprinkle half of the herb mixture evenly over the chicken pieces. (3 minutes)

04

Step
1 mins

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, quartered potatoes, baby carrots, and onion wedges to the bowl with the remaining herb mixture. Toss to coat the vegetables evenly. (5 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Arrange the vegetables in a single layer around the chicken pieces in the pan. (2 minutes)

06

Step
5 mins

Cover the dish tightly with another sheet of aluminum foil, crimping the edges to seal. Fold back one corner of the foil to allow for heat circulation during baking. (3 minutes)

07

Step
3 mins

Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken registers 170 degrees F (77 degrees C) for white meat and 180 degrees F (82 degrees C) for dark meat. Carefully remove the foil cover during the last 10 minutes of cooking to allow the chicken and vegetables to brown slightly. (55 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the chicken and vegetables during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as broccoli florets, bell peppers, or zucchini, based on your preferences and what's in season.
If you don't have garlic salt, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1/2 teaspoon of salt instead.
Ensure the chicken is cooked to a safe internal temperature to prevent foodborne illness.
For easier cleanup, you can also use a disposable aluminum foil pan.
