This was fall of the bone chicken. Best part it was so easy to throw together when I got home from work in the morning. Excellent! Thank you for posting. Made for Cooking With Spritz 09

Tender, fall-off-the-bone chicken and great potatoes. The beans were a bit undercooked and a bit bitter. But I'll be making this again.

I made this today, using a whole chicken, my first time cooking a whole chicken. The recipe was super easy, and the results were very tasty! I mashed up the potatos and garlic together with some of the drippings to make some yummy mashed potatos, and substituted baby carrots for the green beans!

Even though I was skeptical to use a recipe from a longhorn :), this turned out great. I was amazed out how tender the chicken came out. My wife loved it!
