  • step 1
    ingredients   
    instructions Heat the oven to 375°F.
  • step 2
    ingredients 1 (3 1/2 - 4 pound) chicken (trimmed and patted dry)
    2 - 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
    Pinch of cayenne pepper
    6 medium new potatoes (quartered)
    6 small sprigs rosemary
    1 large onion (cut into 8 wedges)
    1 cup crushed canned tomatoes
    1 cup dry white wine
    instructions Rub the chicken all over with a tablespoon or two of olive oil and season it well with salt inside and out. Add a pinch of cayenne to inside and outside of chicken. Put the chicken in a large roasting pan (you want some room around the chicken to hold the vegetables in a single layer). Add the potatoes, rosemary, onion, tomatoes, and wine to the roasting pan around the chicken. Drizzle a tablespoon or so of olive oil. 
  • step 3
    ingredients   
    instructions Roast the chicken until done, periodically basting it with the liquid that accumulates, 1 to 1 1/2 hours depending on the size of the bird. (When cooked through, the juices that result from pricking the thigh will run clear and a thermometer inserted in the thigh will read 170°F.) Let the bird sit for 10 minutes before carving.
  • step 4
    ingredients   
    instructions To serve: Serve the chicken pieces with the potatoes and onions from the pan. Spoon out some of the tomato "sauce" and add that to the plate, too.
