I am excited to share today’s recipe with you. It is delicious! The cooking time will vary based on the size of the chicken that you use, so be patient-- but it is so worth the wait!! The preparation is extremely easy. Have fun and be ready for your family to sing your praises!
Ingredients:
1 whole chicken
Fresh parsley
Fresh sage
Fresh rosemary
Fresh thyme
Kosher salt
Olive oil
Instructions:
*Spray a roasting pan and it’s roasting rack with PAM
*Preheat oven to 400 degrees
*Place chicken, breast side up, onto the rack in roasting pan.
*Carefully loosen the skin over the breast area by running your fingertips just under the skin and then turn over to loosen the skin over the back area of the chicken. Take care to not puncture the skin.
*Place approximately equal amounts of the 4 herbs under the loosened areas of skin on the back and the breast area of the chicken. You may also place more fresh herbs in the front and back cavities of the chicken.
*Spread very light layer of olive oil over entire chicken.
*Sprinkle salt over entire chicken. Return chicken to “breast side up” position on the roasting rack in the pan.
*Place chicken in oven and roast for one hour. Check for doneness.
*Tent foil over chicken and continue roasting until chicken is done.
**It may take up to two hours if your chicken is large and you can reduce the heat slightly and tent the chicken with foil earlier if you wish.
**You’ll know the chicken is done when the juices are clear (not pink) and the meat is firm and no longer pink. A taste test is best.
