Nothing makes your house smell more fantastic than roasting a chicken. There is something so comfortable and cozy about coming home and smelling that aroma coming from the kitchen. As the weather starts to cool down a bit, I can turn on the oven again without fear of heating up the whole house, and this dish is a perfect way to end summer and can easily be made into the fall months ahead. The chicken is seasoned with fennel seed, which adds a savory subtle anise flavor. The addition of the onions, olives, and wine lends a slight salty sweet pan sauce, making this one of the most flavorful roasted chicken dishes I have prepared. I know you will love it.

For the main dish, imagine a perfectly baked white fish that is nestled into a rich tomato sauce flavored with herbs and black olives that is cooked until it is perfectly moist and juicy. A dish that is light in feel but heavy on flavor. Can you say “delicioso”?
