awwwwww this is so nice of you!!! I hope these are what you are looking for
INGREDIENTS
1 (2 to 3 pound) whole chicken, cut into pieces
2 onion, sliced into thin rings
4 potatoes, sliced
2 carrots, sliced
1 sweet potato, sliced
1 tomato, sliced
5 tablespoons mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS
If you have time, place chicken in cayenne pepper, turmeric, garlic powder, salt and pepper for 2 to 3 hours. If not, mix these spices together and cover both sides of the chicken pieces with the mixture, then cover each piece of chicken completely with mayonnaise on both sides.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
Place the sliced onions, potatoes and carrots in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking dish. Put chicken pieces on top, then place the tomato and sweet potato slices around the chicken. Cover dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes.
Lower heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Bake for another 45 to 60 minutes, turning chicken over once, until vegetables are soft and chicken juices run clear. Remove aluminum foil and grill in the oven for 5 to 7 minutes on each side of chicken, to give it a nice coloring. Enjoy!

How many years are they celebrating and how many people?
I'm doing the same thing May 26th! I'm planning on seafood paella, chicken caccitora, with corn on the cob, fresh tomatos with basil and olive oil and vinegar, a pasta salad, and roasted vegetables. That's something you might like...
Cut up a variety of veggies (onions, carrots, cauliflower, zucchini or other summer squash, potatoes are good choices) and arrange them in a layer in a roasting pan or cookie sheet, add either cloves of garlic, or minced garlic, sprinkle with fresh herbs (springs of rosemary are good and any others you have, dried Italian seasonings work as well) garlic or onion powder, salt, pepper, and drizzle olive oil over all. Roast in oven at 350, stirring with spatula so all are cooked evenly. NOTE: Might want to add zucchini hlf way through so it doesn't get over cooked.
