Instructions:

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit.
-
Prepare Ingredients: Wash the chicken and potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels.
-
Prepare Herb Mixture: In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of olive oil, rosemary, thyme, minced garlic, kosher salt, and ground black pepper.
-
Season Under the Skin: Gently loosen the skin from the chicken meat and carefully insert the herb and garlic mixture between the skin and the meat, ensuring even distribution of flavors.
-
Coat the Chicken: Combine the remaining olive oil, rosemary, thyme, kosher salt, and ground black pepper to create a coating mixture. Brush the outside of the chicken pieces generously with this mixture to enhance the flavor and create a delicious crust.
-
Arrange in Pan: Place the chicken pieces in a roasting pan, ensuring they are evenly spaced for even cooking.

Prepare Potatoes and Onions: In a separate bowl, toss the baby red potatoes and sliced onion with olive oil, kosher salt, ground black pepper, and caraway seeds until well coated.
-
Arrange Around Chicken: Surround the chicken pieces with the seasoned potatoes and onions in the roasting pan, allowing them to cook alongside the chicken and absorb the savory flavors.
-
Bake: Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for approximately 1 hour, or until the chicken is golden brown and cooked through, and the potatoes are tender and lightly browned.
-
Rest: Remove the pan from the oven and cover it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute and the flavors to meld.
-
Serve and Enjoy!: Get ready for your kiss! Serve the succulent chicken and flavorful potatoes alongside your favorite side dishes, and savor the delicious flavors of your Jump Up and Kiss the Cook Chicken creation.
