Ramps aren't in season right now (they're a late spring/early summer thing), but you can substitute regular leeks if you want.

Sometimes I put potatoes and onions around it in the pan--they catch all the juices and get soggy but chicken-y good. Other times, if I don't want the sog, I do the potatoes separately, and just put some celery, carrots and onions around the chicken to add aroma and keep it supported in the center of the pan.

I'm the PP who is roasted a chicken for my in-laws tonight. I am considering trying it in my cast iron skillet but have never used that method before. Any tips with regard to heat, oil, etc.?
