Answer 2

Do you eat chicken? If so, chicken is pretty easy to bake. Just wash it thoroughly with clean running water, use a little salt and pepper on the skin, place it skin side up on a baking pan, and bake it at 350 to 400 degrees for about an hour.

Put it on a dish with some nice side vegetables like asparagus, or green beans, or broccoli, or spinach
and maybe mashed potatoes (cut your peeled potatoes in small cubes to cook quickly by boiling, and when very tender, you can mash them with a fork or mashing tool, adding milk and butter and salt (a very little at a time until the right consistency and taste) or sweet potatoes that you baked at the same time with the chicken, or a nice salad of fresh vegetables, or maybe some corn...

It only takes about an hour and a half to prepare and cook. Do the vegetables after you have the chicken cleaned and in the oven baking, and have set the table. Maybe with some flowers and candles, too for a nice ambience.

Put on serving plates and carry to the table.
