Rosemary-Garlic Roast Chicken

I have to admit, I dont recall if I have ever made a whole roast chicken before. I normally think, thats a lot of food, no need to go through the hassle. But believe it or not...it wasn't a hassle, it was actually quite easy.









Rosemary-Garlic Roast Chicken with Root Vegetables by Silvana Nardone
serves 6 prep time 15 minutes cook time 1 hour 30 minutes

5 carrots cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 parsnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 onions, 1 cut into 1/2-inch pieces and 1 halved
4 cloves garlic, smashed
6 sprigs rosemary
3/4 cup chicken broth
1 5lb roasting chicken, rinsed and patted dry
Salt and pepper
EVOO. for brushing

I used leeks instead of parsnips. You could use potatoes instead of either if you prefer. Don't feel pigeon holed into only using what is suggested.
