I was looking for a recipe for just roasting a chicken so did not add the potatoes (will do so another time). The margarine mixture is wonderful. We had a fairly large fryer so used all of the basting sauce. Also baked longer ( 350° 2 1/2 hours). Chicken was so tender but crispy on the outside. Perfect! The apple, onion and garlic sure added to the flavor! Thanks, ChipotleChick, for a delicious recipe! M.Joan
