Awesome, Fool Proof Roasted Chicken PLUS peach cobbler!!


Ok so I work late tonight and had about 5 hours to kill before work so I decided to make something very comforting... roasted chicken! As well as chicken fat potatoes, asparagus, and peach cobbler.
The recipe for the cobble can be found here.

But with out further ado... The roasted chicken recipe!

Ingredients:
Small fryer chicken-de-gutted
2-3 tbl olive oil
1-2 tbl minced garlic
2 springs fresh rosemary
small sweet onion, quatered
small granny smith apple, halved
small lemon
s&p

Preheat oven to 375,
In a 13X9in shallow baking pan place the chicken breast side up. Take apple, onion, and one sprig of fresh rosemary and insert in the cavity. Take garlic and remaining rosemary, removed from twig, and massage on and under the chicken's skin. liberally sprinkle with olive oil and continue to massage garlic, rosemary, and oil until the chicken is well coated. Sprinkle with salt and fresh black pepper. Cook till internal temp reaches 180, or juices run clear, around 1 and half hours. After an hour sprinkle with a bit more olive oil and wait patiently till the temp is right.

Let sit for 10-15 min and carve it up!!!

I took the drippings and used it in place of olive oil on roasted potatoes, it was amazing!

Happy cooking!
