Wine. Wine is in this recipe, I felt like that is how I should open up this post. You're welcome.

No but seriously, last night I made the best roasted chicken in white wine with potatoes and herbs.

You will need:

chicken - i used 4 legs 4 thighs

1 1/2 pounds of baby potatoes cut in half

1 cup of dry white wine

1 cup of chicken broth

salt

pepper

thyme

rosemary

4 cloves of garlic crushed

3 sliced lemons

Pre-heat the oven at 400 degrees

In a large baking pan, add the cut potatoes, pepper and salted chicken, sliced lemons, thyme and rosemary, and pour over the brother and wine.

I covered it with aluminum foil and let it cook for an hour before uncovering it and cooking it for an additional 30 minutes. If you cover it first, the chicken comes out very tender.

Other than the part where you have to go through an hour and a half of torture in the form of a great smelling kitchen, it's VERY easy to make and it makes you feel like you have your shit together in life.

Give it a try and let me know what you think!
