Delish! I made this recipe a couple months ago. It was so yummy!!! I did change a few things up, for my crew. I decided to use bite sized potatoes, carrots, red onion, and celery. It was so yummy. However, I put the full amount of cayenne in and it was a bit too much for my taste buds. I’m making it for dinner again tonight and going to use half a tablespoon this time.

This is a good basic recipe. I do like this method of preparing meals because you make the whole meal in one pan and clean up is a breeze. That being said, I think veggies like broccoli, carrots, cauliflower and potatoes are best suited with this method of roasting. I added more spices like basil & oregano to the mix with the rosemary. Good basic recipe to adapt to your own tastes.

This is a good recipe but it needs some tweaking. I used 3 leg quarters since the recipe did not specify and I didn’t feel like cutting apart a whole chicken. I ended up using 2 squash and 2 zucchini’s, since their size was not specified in the recipe and my 13×9 pan was getting full. I did cut the rosemary down to 2 tablespoons and it was plenty. I used the full amount of cayenne but in the future I would cut this in at least half. We like spicy in our house but it was a bit much for some, I would adjust this based on your personal taste. Finally, I would adjust the cooking temperature. As written it took over 1.5 hours for my chicken to cook, After 1 hour I removed the veggies and cooked the chicken separately until it was done. I would raise the temp to 375/400 instead.

I played around with adding additional veggies (carrots, asparagus, and cremini mushrooms) as suggested could be done by the recipe submitter, otherwise no changes. This is missing something for me. I think perhaps some lemon juice to brighten it up might help. The chicken was moist, but the flavor of the seasoning didn’t carry through for me.
