Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and oil a 13” X 9” (3L) shallow baking dish
Peel potatoes, sweet potatoes and onion; cut into very thin slices. Layer vegetables in prepared baking dish. Season with rosemary, salt and pepper.
Place whole chicken breasts, skin side up, on work surface. (If you purchased whole breasts with backs on, cut away back bone using poultry shears). Remove any fat deposits under skins. Press down on breast bone to flatten slightly. Make the rosemary butter: In a small bowl, mash together butter, garlic, lemon rind, rosemary, salt and pepper. Divide into 4 portions.
Carefully loosen the breast skins and tuck rosemary butter under skins, patting to distribute evenly.
Arrange chicken on top of vegetables in baking dish. Cover with sheet of greased foil; roast in preheated oven for 45 minutes. Uncover and roast 25-30 minutes more or until vegetables are tender and chicken is nicely coloured.
