The recipe is simple: clean and season the meat; peel the potatoes, cut and season with salt; place them in a baking pan (I used Pyrex dish). The juice from the chicken adds water to the potatoes to soften them up. Cover with aluminum foil and bake at 400 F for an hour. Then uncover the pan and bake for another 15 minutes or until chicken turns golden and vegetables seem cooked.
