2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 teaspoon rosemary
3/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 pounds small red potatoes, halved

1
Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Squeeze 3 tablespoons juice from lemons; reserve squeezed lemon halves. Combine the lemon juice, parsley, mustard, garlic, oil, rosemary, pepper, and salt in a small bowl; blend well.

Toss the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of the parsley mixture in a large bowl. Reserve. Gently slide fingers between the skin and meat of the chicken to loosen skin.
