    frequently asked questions

    how do you know if the chicken is done?

    the chicken was fully cooked in the 30 minutes. however, to check you can use a thermometer or cut it open to make sure it is cooked all the way through.

    can i use another kind of potato in this recipe?

    you can use any type of potato that you like! i love to use red potatoes when roasting with thyme but even sweet potatoes would be delicious!

    can i store leftovers? if so, what's the best way?

    yes! store in a sealed container for up to 5 days.
