Ingredients

  • 1 whole organic chicken, 3-4 pounds
  • 2 tablespoons ghee or duck fat, melted
  • 6 medium Yukon potatoes, sliced thin
  • Celtic sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425ºF and adjust the rack to the middle position. Place the chicken in a 12-inch cast iron skillet. Using a pastry brush, brush about 1 tablespoon of the ghee over the chicken.
  2. Place the potatoes in a large bowl and toss with the remaining ghee and then place the potatoes in the skillet around the chicken. Season everything with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Roast for 45 minutes, until skin on chicken is golden brown and when a meat thermometer is inserted into the chicken it registers 165ºF.
  4. Carefully, transfer the chicken to a cutting board, and then put the skillet with the potatoes back in the oven. Tent the chicken with foil and let it rest for 20 minutes, while the potatoes continue to roast. After 20 minutes, remove the potatoes, carve the chicken and serve.
