Ingredients

  • whole chicken, (about 4-5 pounds)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon crushed black peppercorn
  • 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon miso
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, (use less or more according to your liking, account for the salt in the miso)
  • 1 pound tiny potatoes

For Basting

  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon miso

Instructions

  1. Remove the chicken giblets and pat the chicken dry with paper towels. Cut the chicken in half (see blog above this recipe for how to halve a chicken). Set aside.
  2. Wash, scrub, dry and cut the baby potatoes in half. Set aside.
  3. Mix the Seasoning Blend: In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, lemon juice, olive oil, miso, honey, sage, and salt.
  4. Rub the seasoning all over the chicken and marinate for 30 minutes in the fridge.
  5. Preheat the oven to 500°F. Mix the basting ingredients in a small bowl.
  6. Place the chicken, breast side up in an oven-safe skillet or baking pan then put it on the lowest rack in the oven.
  7. Cook for 15 minutes.
  8. Remove the pan from the oven, add halved potatoes onto the bottom of the chicken. Brush the chicken and halved potatoes with the basting mixture. Place the pan back in the oven on the lowest rack.
  9. Reduce the temperature to 425°F and continue cooking for about 20-25 minutes or until a thermometer inserted into the thigh registers 165°F. If you think the skin is getting too dark, but it isn’t done cooking, cover the pan with foil.
  10. Test the potatoes to make sure they are done. If they are not, but the chicken is, transfer the chicken to a cutting board and return the potatoes into the oven until cooked through.

  11. Let the chicken rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.
