Pan-Roasted Chicken and Vegetables
This one-dish roast chicken with vegetables tastes as if it took hours of hands-on time to put together, but the simple ingredients can be prepped in mere minutes. The rosemary gives it a rich flavor, and the meat juices cook the veggies to perfection. It’s unbelievably easy! —Sherri Melotik, Oak Creek, Wisconsin

Just made this for dinner today, it was delicious and very tasty. The only additions I made, added Dr. Bragg's 24 herbs and spices and Italian seasoning to the chicken. I also mixed the spinach in very well with the vegetables. My husband asked me if it was hard to make because he says this is a keeper.
Love this recipe! We've made it a couple of times. The spinach on top is exceptional if you lightly mix it in with chicken and veggies at the end, otherwise it tends to be dry. I agree with the other reviews that say to double the spices on the chicken. This recipe is very easy and tasty.
We just loved this! I frequently roast chicken, so adding the veggies is just a bonus for us. I used a whole chicken, with the back removed flattened on the sheet pan, spatchcock style. It cooked in the same length of time, and for the 2 of us, made 2 full meals plus 2 lunches for my husband. We loved the seasoning, which is a little different from my usual flavors. VFE
This is a winner! We loved it. I used 6 chicken thighs but halved the veggies for the two of us. I also added 1/2 teaspoon Italian herb seasoning to both the chicken and veggie spices and it was delicious. I did not have spinach so used fresh broccoli. Those were the only changes I made. Followed the rest of the recipe to the letter. Absolutely delicious and we will be having this again soon.
Why is the photo a still picture of "Rosemary"? I like pictures of the actual recipe, and I don't like videos to replace the actual still recipe picture.
It was good but next time I would double the seasoning on the chicken, as I thought it was a little bland. I used half the amount of potatoes and added cauliflower and broccoli to keep it lower in carbs. Next time I’ll leave the spinach off. We didn’t care for it. Good recipe with a few tweaks.
This was an easy dinner to prepare. I didn’t use anywhere near the amount of salt called for... a personal health preference. I substituted fresh green beans for the spinach. It will be a repeat.
This recipe is quite good as is and seems that one can definitely make changes to suit individual family tastes. It is a keeper in my opinion!
This was so delicious..I just added cut up carrot and seastoned really well on both sides of chicken and vegetables. Great recipe, followed pretty much exactly..just added a little more of the seasoning
I thought it needed a tad more seasoning, which I adjusted according to taste. I also used more vegetables and added half a packet of dried Italian dressing mix.
