If you’re looking for something delicious yet easy to cook, I suggest you roast a chicken. This Garlic Rosemary Roasted Chicken is my go to chicken dish on a weekend because it looks really special but it takes very little effort to cook. I just make sure that I marinate the chicken a couple of days prior to roasting.
As for the veggies, I usually add potatoes and carrots and I add them at the beginning. Those veggies never gets overcooked especially if you put them close to the chicken. Sakto lang ang pagkaluto nila, kapag naluto na yung chicken. This is the first time I tried adding broccoli to my roasted chicken. I added it before putting it in the oven just like the potates and carrots.. hehe, tinamad kasi ako to add it later. The broccoli ended up crispy and a bit dry. I liked the crispness, though.
To make this Garlic Rosemary Roasted Chicken more delicious, I make a rich and creamy gravy to smother it with. Sharing with you the recipe below.
