Break down the whole chicken into parts.

Wash and slice Idaho potatoes into quarter-inch to half-inch medallions.

Season the chicken with salt, black pepper, and poultry seasoning on both sides.

Add olive oil to the chicken to help marinate the seasonings.

Peel rosemary leaves off the stem and add to the chicken, then mix well.

Marinate the chicken in the refrigerator overnight or for at least three hours.

Preheat the oven to 425°F.

Add olive oil to a baking pan and spread the marinated chicken out in the pan.

Slice the potatoes and season them with salt, black pepper, and oregano.

Add about 4 to 5 tablespoons of olive oil to the potatoes and mix to coat.

Spread the seasoned potatoes on a baking sheet and place in the oven with the chicken.

Bake the chicken and potatoes together for approximately 20 minutes, then check the potatoes for tenderness.

Flip the potatoes after 20 minutes to brown the other side, cooking for an additional 15 minutes if needed.

Remove the chicken from the oven and keep the juices in the pan to make gravy.

Add 1.5 cups of water to the chicken drippings in the pan and mix in 3 to 4 tablespoons of cream of chicken.

Return the pan to the oven to lift the seasoning bits and form a gravy.

Prepare green beans by cutting smoked beef sausage and adding it to a pot with the juice from one can of green beans and three drained cans.

Simmer the sausage in the green bean juice for about 6 to 7 minutes before adding the green beans.

Add half a teaspoon of garlic powder and black pepper to the green beans and cover to steam for about 10 minutes.

Add 3 tablespoons of butter to the green beans and cover to let steam.

Combine the roasted potatoes with the chicken and pour the gravy over the top.

Return the chicken and potatoes to the oven for an additional 20 to 30 minutes to allow the gravy to cook throughout.

Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, and garlic powder as needed.
