Directions

1
Wash chickens thoroughly inside and out, dab dry. Tie the ends of the legs together with kitchen string and place on a baking tray. Rub the chicken first with 1 tablespoon of oil, then with salt and pepper.
2
Cook in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for approx. 1 1/4 hours. If the upper side becomes too dark, cover with aluminium foil. Peel, wash and dice the potatoes.
3
Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large pan. Fry the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, turning frequently. Peel and chop the onion. Wash and clean the aubergine and courgette. Dice the aubergine.
4
Halve the zucchini lengthwise and cut into slices. Clean, wash and slice the celery. Add vegetables to the potatoes, season with salt and pepper and fry for 2-3 minutes. Drain the tomatoes.
5
Coarsely chop the tomatoes, add to the vegetables and braise for about 5 minutes. Wash tarragon, dab dry, put something aside for garnishing. Finely chop the rest. Mix mustard, honey and tarragon. Take the chicken out of the oven and brush with the marinade.
6
Cook in the oven at the same temperature for another 5-8 minutes. Season vegetables to taste again. Serve the chicken with the vegetables. Garnish with tarragon.
