This chicken is good with pretty much anything.  To make a meal out of it I will either roast some small potatoes at the same time and serve the dish with salad or oven roasted broccoli, or slide in a potato boulangere to cook alongside the chicken.  I always cook more chicken pieces than I need as the meat is great for sandwiches over the coming days.  If gravy is a must for your chicken dinner, use the pan juices to make your gravy.

We are in love with this roast chicken.  It is so quick and easy to throw together that it features regularly on our weekly menus.  Now if only I could find a better way to roast lamb.
