So far this week has been cold and rainy (well cool - but also humid - so I'm cold but sweating - it's disgusting). So last night was most certainly a comfort food night. Roast chicken - but in all honesty in my mind it was just the side dish to one of my favorite things: roasted potatoes. Can't really explain why I love them so much, but I do. Comforting, delicious, filling, savory...sigh...
I opted for white creamery potatoes, diced. Hot oven (I would normally do around 400 or so, but I had to accommodate the chicken - so it was 375) for about an hour. I didn't gussy them up with anything other than olive oil, salt & pepper. Although some rosemary would be sexy - paprika would be daring - or a small squeeze of lemon with some pepper would be crazy! I did turn them once halfway through cooking to get some crunchy edges all around.
Chirs, This is my favorite way to eat potatoes, or pan fried. I think it's my favorite comfort food. We like roast chicken also, but lately I've been lazy about it and the last few times I picked up a rotisserie one on the way home. Sigh......I'm a terrible wife!
