Chicken Dinner

It is cold outside and I wanted to make a nice warm dinner. It also helped that I had a half day today and had lots of time.
I made smashed roasted potatoes, green beans and carrots sauteed in balsamic vinger and a bit of oil and a roast chicken.
This was another disgustingly easy meal, but it did have a few steps and took about an hour.
The potato recipe is already up and the green been carrot thingy is pretty much slef explanatory.
For the roast chicken I took a whole chickn, sprinked it with corn starch, baking powder and mrs. dash. Then cooked it at 425 for an hour.
That was it.
Here is the real "recipe"
Ingrediants:
  • 1 whole chicken
  • roughly a tablespoon of Mrs. Dash orginal seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 Oven at 425 degree
  1. Take the chicken out of the bag and put it in a baking pan or roasting pan (Make sure you take out all the insides.
  2. Mix the remaining three ingrediants all together, then sprinkle over chicken
  3. Stick in preheated oven for an hour
  4. Check with thermometer-breast should be atleast 165, thigh 180
  5. Take out when cooked, sit on cutting board
  6. Let chickn rest for 5-10 minutes or so (otherwise the juices fall out and it is less tasty)
  7. Carve and eat
