Crispy Rosemary Chicken

As I've done before with the butter chicken, this one was a bit too dry too. I wonder if there's any way to marinate or "prepare" the chicken pieces before baking to make it juicy and tender in the end. However, the dried rosemary did make the chicken more flavourful.

As for the mashed potato at the side, I just improvised a bit. Besides adding butter as we usually do, I added in a bit of milk and a sprinkle of dried oregano and black pepper.

Oh, and thanks to the piglet and husband for their support in this Saturday night dinner. :)
