Step 1: Prepare the Chicken

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs. Heat some oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown. Transfer the chicken to a baking dish and bake for 20-25 minutes or until fully cooked.

Step 2: Prepare the Mashed Potatoes

Peel and chop the potatoes into even-sized pieces. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain and mash the potatoes with butter, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Roast the Root Vegetables

Peel and chop an assortment of root vegetables such as carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes. Toss them with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast in the oven at 375°F (190°C) until tender and golden, about 25-30 minutes.

Step 4: Serve

Serve the roasted chicken alongside the mashed potatoes and roasted root vegetables. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
