Roast chicken with okra

My English husband became so enamoured of this dish when he first ate it at my parents’ house in Athens in the early 1970s that from then on my mother used to include it in her menu whenever we stayed with them. In Greece, okra is a summer staple. It is cooked on its own, or can be combined with lamb or beef, and tastes delicious in a chicken casserole, as in this dish, kotopoulo me bamies fournou.
