   ["Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Place the potatoes in a bowl and drizzle with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper, set aside. Brush the entire outside of the chicken with the soy sauce and then season inside and out with the kosher salt and black pepper. Don't be afraid to ""over salt"" just a little. The salt will help draw out some of that moisture making the skin crispy.", "", "Place the chicken in a oven proof glass or metal roasting pan and then spread the potatoes around the chicken. Place the chicken in the oven and set the timer for 20 minutes. Do not open the oven and after 20 minutes turn the oven to 275 degrees and set the timer for 45 minutes . After 45 minutes open the door and remove the chicken. Sprinkle the lavender over the chicken and then place back in the oven for another 45 minutes. Remove the chicken and pull the leg bone away from the body and look into the meat to see if it is clear and not bloody. If it is return to the oven for another 15-20 minutes until done.", "", "When completely cooked let the chicken rest for 15 minutes before carving."]
