Chicken and Tomatoes

Here is another yet amazingly easy and tasty chicken recipe.
This requires one small can of tomato paste, spices and minced garlic.
I use a roasting pan for this dinner, it takes about 35 minutes or so to bake and about 15 minutes prep. time.
For this dinner you will need:
Vegetables for roasting -
To make it easy I use potatoes, tomatoes, whole onions and whole heads of garlic.
Chicken pieces - preferably with the skin on (you do not have to eat it but it will keep the chicken moist)
1 small can of tomato paste
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
1/4 tsp pepper
3 - 4 cloves minced garlic
2/3 cup of water
Mix the tomato paste with the spices, garlic and water to make a baste.
Place the chicken and vegetables (you can use small whole potatoes) in a roasting pan.
Drizzle all with olive oil just enough to coat the top. Broil all this for 10 min.
Reduce the oven to bake (350-375) and baste chicken and vegetables with sauce.
Do this once or twice more until ready. Usually at 10 minute intervals.
You will love the flavour of the whole onions, garlic and tomatoes!
So easy to prepare.
Add a salad and your dinner is complete!
