Ingredients
  • Whole chicken, cut into 6-8 parts (I estimate one quarter per person for hearty appetites) or four thighs & four drumsticks...
  • 1 lemon
  • A mix of potatoes, butternut squash, sweet potato, pumpkin, Jerusalem artichokes- to cover the bottom of your cooking pan.
  • 1 medium onion - more, less, or omit entirely - up to you.
  • Salt
  • Granulated garlic powder
  • Fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4-1/2 cup dark brown sugar-more or less depending on how caramelized a flavour you want.
  • If you like it spicy- you could add a gentle dusting of chili pepper

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Slice the root vegetables into pieces about 1/ 4 inch (or less) wide and arrange in the bottom of baking pan.
  3. Chop the onion coarsely.
  4. Arrange the chicken over the vegetables. (The onion could go in the bottom of the pan, or be sprinkled on top to brown.)
  5. Cut the lemon in half and squeeze the juice over the chicken. (You can tuck the squeezed lemon into the pan for a more intense lemon flavour)
  6. Season the chicken with salt, garlic powder and pepper.
  7. Sprinkle the brown sugar over the chicken.
  8. Bake at 425 degrees for 15-20 minutes
  9. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional hour.
  10. (If you'd rather not mess with changing the temp -bake it at 350 for 1 1/2 - 1 3/4 hours.)
  11. **Check that the root veg are cooked - if not, the dish may need a bit more cooking time.

Sounds superb. I will be doing the root vegetables and I prefer my chicken hot unless it's in chicken salad. Great post. You have my 5.
