This is a great one dish meal that the entire family will love. You can add any of your favorite root vegetables and herbs with this dish. Once it is baked, the onions caramelize with the olive oil and the garlic is perfectly roasted. Serve this dish warm straight from the oven.

Ingredients

• 1 whole chicken with skin on, cut up into quarters
