Ingredients

1 ½ pounds baby Yukon potatoes, halved

1 sweet onion, cut into wedges 

1 pound carrots, peeled and cut into sticks

½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided 

½ teaspoon salt 

½ teaspoon paprika 

½ teaspoon black pepper 

½ teaspoon garlic powder 

½ teaspoon onion powder 

½ teaspoon dried oregano 

1 (3 to 4 pound) whole chicken

How to Make Bundt Pan Chicken

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

• Prepare a 12-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Fold a square of aluminum foil and shape it over the hole in the Bundt pan. Into the Bundt pan, place the vegetables.

• Place 4 tablespoons of butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat until melted. Pour the melted butter over the vegetables and toss to coat.

• In a small bowl, combine the salt, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and dried oregano. 

• Divide the seasoning blend in place half into a bowl with the remaining butter. Using a fork, combine the seasoning with the butter until well blended. Set aside.

• Sprinkle the other half of the seasoning over the vegetables in the Bundt pan and toss the vegetables to coat well.
• Pat the chicken dry and rub the chicken all over with the herb butter. Seat the chicken over the tube hole in the Bundt pan.

• Bake for 60 to 70 minutes or until the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees in the thigh (without touching a bone.)

• Allow the chicken to rest for 10 minutes prior to slicing and serving with the vegetables.

Tips & Tricks

1. Pat the chicken dry: Before applying the herb butter and seasoning, pat the chicken dry with paper towels. This helps the seasoning adhere better to the chicken and promotes crispy skin during roasting.
2. Check for doneness: Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the chicken. It should register 165°F (75°C) in the thickest part of the thigh, without touching the bone.
3. Let it rest: Allow the chicken to rest for at least 10 minutes after roasting before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring moist and tender meat.
4. Customize your vegetables: Feel free to swap out or add different vegetables according to your preferences. Just make sure they’re cut into similar-sized pieces for even cooking.
5. Monitor the cooking time: Keep an eye on the chicken during the last few minutes of cooking to prevent overcooking. If the skin starts to brown too quickly, tent the pan with aluminum foil.

FAQ’s For Making Bundt Pan Chicken

1. Can I use other types of potatoes? Yes, you can use different varieties of potatoes such as russet potatoes or red potatoes. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time accordingly based on the size and type of potatoes you use.
2. Can I make this recipe in advance? While Bundt Pan Chicken is best served fresh from the oven, you can prepare the vegetables and herb butter ahead of time to save time on the day of cooking. However, it’s best to roast the chicken just before serving for the juiciest results.
3. Can I add additional seasonings? Absolutely! Feel free to customize the seasoning blend to suit your taste preferences. You can add herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage for extra flavor.
4. Can I use a different type of pan? While a Bundt pan works well for this recipe, you can also use a roasting pan or baking dish if you don’t have a Bundt pan available. Just make sure the pan is large enough to accommodate the chicken and vegetables without overcrowding.
