I use my Dutch Oven at least three times a week.

Here is my favorite thing to do with it and all you need is a whole chicken, some seasonings and a couple of sweet potatoes.

Slice up the sweet potatoes into thick slices. Coat both sides with olive oil and add pepper and salt. Then lay them across the bottom of the Dutch Oven while preheating oven to 400 degrees.

On stovetop, cook on medium high for exactly 7 minutes. Do not flip the sweet potato slices over. Meanwhile, season the whole chicken with salt, pepper, thyme, garlic and paprika. Make sure you get those seasonings in the cavity too. Then tuck a few pats of butter under the skin in the breast area.

After 7 minutes, lay seasoned whole chicken on top of the sweet potato and put in 400 degree oven (uncovered) for one solid hour. If your chicken is larger than 3-4 pounds, add 15 minutes for each pound.

The result will be a perfect dinner.
