Description

A classic whole roast chicken with crisp golden skin, garlic, herbs and lemony pan juices.

Ingredients

Chicken

Instructions

  1. Prepare

    Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan. Pat the chicken dry and place in a roasting tin.

  2. Season

    Mix butter, garlic and herbs, then rub over the chicken. Put one halved lemon in the cavity with the onion.

  3. Roast

    Roast for about 1 hour 30 minutes, basting once or twice, until the juices run clear and the thickest part reaches a safe temperature.

  4. Rest

    Transfer to a board and rest for 15 minutes.

  5. Finish

    Add stock and juice from the remaining lemon to the roasting tin, scrape up the pan juices and simmer briefly for a simple gravy.

Note

Resting keeps the meat juicy and makes carving easier.
