Frequently Asked Questions
Can I substitute the white wine in the recipe?
Yes, you can substitute white wine with chicken broth or vegetable broth for a non-alcoholic version. If you're looking for a similar flavor profile, you can also use apple cider vinegar or a splash of lemon juice mixed with water.
How should I store leftovers from this roasted chicken and potatoes dish?
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can last for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, you can freeze the chicken and potatoes in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. Make sure to separate the portions for easier reheating.
What should I do if my chicken isn't browning properly during the baking?
If your chicken isn't browning properly, it may help to increase the oven temperature to 200ºC (400ºF) for the last 10 minutes of cooking. Additionally, make sure the chicken is not overcrowded in the pan, as good air circulation is essential for browning.
