Garlic Roast Chicken

My first time cooking an actual whole chicken and it was absolutely delicious.





Ingredients:
Whole chicken
1 1/2 potato for each person
assorted vegetables, I used a frozen Thai mix
2 cloves garlic
paprika
black pepper
1 tbs olive oil
1/2 cup of diced onions 

Instructions:
Remove skin from chicken.
Crush garlic, mix with olive oil, paprika, black pepper.
Rub spice mixture all over chicken.
Place in covered pan and bake at 350.  You can google how long to bake based upon the weight of your particular chicken.

Bake potatoes in microwave.  In my microwave it take approximately 11 for 3 medium sized potatoes.

60 minutes before the chicken is cooked, add onions to pan.
40 minutes before the chicken is cooked, quarter potatoes and add them to the pan.
30 minutes before the chicken is cooked, prepare frozen vegetables according to the directions on the bag.  
20 minutes before the chicken is cooked, turn potatoes over and remove cover from pan.

Tip: You can leave the skin on but removing it is an easy way to cut calories.
