Easiest Roast Chicken

1. 1

   Clean chicken and arrange breast side up in a roasting pan.

2. 2

   Combine rest of ingredients and spread evenly over chicken, enough to coat (not necessarily the entire mixture, just to coat the skin).

3. 3

   Cover pan tightly and bake in oven at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until desired doneness. (We like ours falling off the bones, so I often leave it in for 2+ hours.) This recipe does not produce a crispy skin, but you can uncover the pan and baste the chicken for the final 20 minutes or so to crisp it up.

4. 4

   For roasted potatoes: wash and cut small red skinned potatoes in half lengthwise. Toss with spice mix and olive or vegetable oil; arrange on baking sheet and roast at 400 degrees for 45-60 minutes, until tender.

5. 5

   For pan seared salmon: Heavily coat skinless salmon fillets in spice mix. Gently put fillets in nonstick pan, set over medium-high heat, with small amount of olive oil. Sear each side until crisp and cooked through; about 3-5 minutes on the first side (depending on thickness of fillet) and 1-2 minutes on second side.
