Cooks Tips

While the chicken is cooking the oven, add in some medium-sized potatoes to cook at the same time. Wash, dry and prick potatoes with a fork. Rub with oil and flaky salt and place directly onto the racks and cook for about 45 minutes. If you only have large potatoes, cook them pierced with a metal skewer and that way they metal will heat up helping to cook the potatoes from the inside out and cut down the cooking time.
