cooking meat over vegetables in drip pan

GoldenQ

I think I remember a thread that cooked vegetables in a drip pan under the meat which was chicken.  But I cannot find it.  Have any of you tried this and did it work good and if so what vegetables to use???   And what meats did you cook?

I roast small potatoes and garlic under chicken then I smash the potatoes. Sometimes the potatoes need a few mins in the microwave to finish cooking them so they smash.

Smoked garlic smashed potatoes are awesome.

Root vegetables work as well

I have a few kids who LOVE potatoes this way. Even if it is not in the plan for dinner I will still put a 9x13 underneath the chicken to catch the drippings with potatoes and onions in there.
