    I usually just add them at the beginning of the roasting process. The potatoes soak up the juices from the roast and get nicely browned.

    It may not be low fat, but it is very good.

    First off I would slow-roast it from 350-375 degrees and add thepotatoes at the same time. You can always toss the potatoes in some olive oil and herbs prior to placing with the chicken for added flavour.

    about 20-25 minutes before your bird is going to be done. Check them with a fork before you take them out. You can always cook them a little longer after you take the chicken out of the pan if necessary ,for a couple more minutes. If youare checking the temp with a thermometer ,try to gauge the time remaining by the temp it has reach in say an hour. Hope they turn out good

    Potatoes take about 45 minutes to roast.

    You need to, bring down temp to 350 and add potatoes. With the rest of the veggies and chicken. Like onions, garlic, celery,carrots, chicken stock, rosemary, etc.

    you need to boil them for 10 minutes then drain them then add them about an hour before the chicken is cooked basting them with the juices

  • I would add them right away. They can take awhile, and to cook them next to the chicken will give them a nice flavor. Try tossing them with salt, pepper, and parsley before you add them.

    Put it in at the same time, potatoes will have so much more flavor. Happy cooking!!!
