- smoked paprika (Use generously, according to the transcript; exact amount not stated.)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (The creator says to use a little olive oil.)
- 2 stalks celery (Roughly chopped; amount estimated because the source gives no quantity.)
- 1 medium onion (Roughly chopped; amount estimated because the source gives no quantity.)
- 3 carrots (Roughly chopped; amount estimated because the source gives no quantity.)
- 4 cloves garlic (Smashed; amount estimated because the source gives no quantity.)
- 680 g potatoes (Place on top of the aromatics; amount estimated because the source gives no quantity.)
- 1 Grandma Eloise's Kicking Chicken Seasoning Bomb (One seasoning bomb. The creator says this replaces multiple seasonings.)
- 120 ml Italian herb broth (Chicken broth or vegetable broth may be used instead; amount estimated from the visual mixing step because no quantity was stated.)
- 2 dollops butter (Place two dollops over the chicken; exact weight not stated.)
- 1 oven-safe roasting bag (Turkey-size bag, used with a roasting pan; not eaten.)
Steps
- 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 2
Season the whole chicken with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and a little olive oil. Be generous with the paprika, which also helps the chicken develop color in the bag.
- 3
Place a turkey-size oven-safe roasting bag in a roasting pan. Add the celery, onion, carrots, and smashed garlic to the bottom of the bag.
- 4
Add the potatoes to the bag on top of the aromatics.
- 5
Place the seasoned chicken into the bag on top of the potatoes and vegetables.
- 6
Dissolve one Grandma Eloise's Kicking Chicken Seasoning Bomb in Italian herb broth, or use chicken broth or vegetable broth instead. Mix until combined and smooth in consistency.
- 7
Pour the broth-and-seasoning mixture over the chicken to help give it color in the oven.
- 8
Top the chicken with two dollops of butter.
- 9
Tie the roasting bag tightly and place the roasting pan in the preheated oven.
- 10
Roast for about 1 hour to 1 hour 15 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and resembles the finished roast shown by the creator.
Notes
The source does not specify the chicken's weight, exact vegetable quantities, broth quantity, or a final internal temperature. Use a properly rated oven-safe roasting bag and follow its packaging directions. The transcript says the recipe takes about 5 minutes to assemble and that the chicken is roasted for 1 to 1¼ hours.
