This is a simple way to roast chicken that makes the meat aromatic and delicious! Lately for Thanksgiving & Christmas, I've been roasting chicken instead of big turkeys, simply because I don't need to feed so many people (not to mention I have a tiny oven). I think it's still just as festive ;)Roasting guide (Oven at 400°F/200°C):2 to 2.3 kg (4.5 to 5 pounds) - 65 to 75 min.1.6 to 1.8 kg (3.5 to 4 pounds) - 50 to 60 min.

A lemon inserted into the chicken's cavity during roasting keeps the meat moist and juicy. Seasoning the skin with zest imparts flavor and salt makes it crispy. During roasting, the chicken is surrounded with lemons. which caramelize into a relish-like condiment.

Cozy comfort food

These flavors go crazy good with each other. Grab a good loaf of bread to sop up the sauce it creates when roasting! Delish!

My kids were asking for a new taste to a roasted chicken. One loved lemon, the other garlic. I decided to combine the two. They love it.

Good old roast chicken, great flavours for kids to enjoy.

Great and tasty alternative to fried chicken !

I was inspired by a Tuscan dish. You only need to spread the ingredients out in a dish and roast! So simple, and perfect for Christmas.Note: The Rosemary is only added for the aroma, and should not be eaten.This is a simple dish that brings out the natural flavors of the ingredients, so it's best to use high-quality chicken. Be sure to use an oven-safe dish. A lot of oil will gather in the bottom of the dish during cooking – it tastes great spread on potatoes or bread. Recipe by ai_yui

I came up with this recipe as I had lots of lemons and wanted to cook it with chicken.It's a perfect combination with herbs, so I made this lemon and herb roast chicken ♪● I put 1/2 lemon but you can still enjoy the refreshing taste by 1/4.● I used the handy dried thyme and rosemary but you get a better flavor with fresh herbs.
