In the book, they actually grill the chicken with a lemon juice, rosemary, arugula combination.
My version was a roasted chicken lightly brushed with olive oil, herbs, salt and pepper --really quite simple.
For a side dish, my mother peeled fresh peas from the garden and fried them with caramelized onions, along with sliced potatoes roasted with the chicken.
Here's the recipe - Roasted Chicken with Fresh Peas
Wash chicken thoroughly. Put a drop of lemon in water, cut pieces of chicken to liking. In roasting pan, put 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Add your salt, pepper, or chicken spices of your choice. Add onions and potatoes in cubes next to chicken. Put in oven at 450 degrees for more than 30 minutes. Turn with wooden spoon about two times to get potatoes and onions roasted evenly.
For the peas -
Cut small pieces of medium onions, cook for about one minute. Add peas, cook for about 10 minutes more, gently move in pan about two times till peas are cooked. Cover the pan while you wait to serve peas.
