Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Arrange an oven rack in the lower third of the oven with no racks above it. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Place potatoes, carrots, thyme, and rosemary in a 12-inch cast-iron or other oven-safe deep skillet. Season with salt and black pepper; pour in 1 cup stock. Rub chicken skin with olive oil; season with salt and black pepper. Place chicken, breast-side-up, on top of the vegetables. (15 minutes)

03

Step

Roast in the preheated oven until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 60 to 75 minutes, basting with pan juices every 20 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh, near the bone, should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

04

Step

Transfer chicken to a platter, draining juices from the cavity into the pan. Arrange vegetables around the chicken on the serving platter using a slotted spoon. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Bring pan drippings to a simmer over medium heat. Whisk in flour, whisk constantly for 1 minute. Whisk in the remaining 1 cup stock until smooth; simmer until thickened, about 2 minutes. If too thick, whisk in more stock, 2 tablespoons at a time, until reaches desired consistency. Stir in cream; season with salt and black pepper. (10 minutes)

06

Step

Carve the chicken; serve with vegetables and gravy.

For extra crispy skin, pat the chicken dry with paper towels before rubbing with olive oil and seasoning.
Feel free to add other vegetables like onions, parsnips, or sweet potatoes to the roasting pan.
If you don't have fresh herbs, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried thyme and 1 teaspoon of dried rosemary.
For a richer gravy, use chicken broth instead of chicken stock.
Let the chicken rest for 10-15 minutes before carving for juicier meat.

    I added some garlic cloves to the vegetables and it gave the dish even more flavor. Great recipe!

  • Arianna Fisher

    The gravy was a little thick for my taste, so I added a bit more chicken stock. Adjust to your liking!
