Baked chicken, the recipe

Ingredients:

– a fresh chicken (about 1 kg)
– potatoes
– extra virgin olive oil
– salt
– rosemary
– sage
– to taste: garlic, thyme, pepper, lemon,

To tell the truth, there is no real recipe for cooking chicken in the oven or at least the way it is done in my house is really simple to make.
First we need a nice whole chicken and (if you want the side dish) some nice potatoes cut into small pieces.
We put the chicken in a steel pan or (this has been a recent improvement in my house) a heat-resistant porcelain baking dish.
We brush well with extra virgin olive oil and add salt, rosemary and a few sage leaves.
We put everything in a fan oven (preheated) at 180° and leave to cook for an hour.
Obviously the cooking time will vary depending on the size of the chicken itself.
Every now and then take a look and, if you can, cover with the sauce that forms during cooking.
If you want a bit of a boost to the crispiness of the skin, add the grill in the last 5 minutes of cooking.
