Succulent roast chicken to elevate your Sunday feast!
Ingredients:
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 large (about 1.6kg) free-range chicken
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 40ml (2 tbsp) extra virgin olive oil
  • 20.00 ml finely chopped rosemary
  • 40 garlic cloves, skin on
  • 300ml chicken style liquid stock
  • 300ml white wine
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 190°C.
  • Cut the lemon in half lengthwise and stuff it, along with the bay leaves, into the chicken cavity. Secure the legs with kitchen string, then coat the chicken with olive oil and sprinkle with rosemary. Transfer the chicken into an ovenproof casserole dish with garlic cloves, stock, and wine. Bring to a boil on the stovetop, then cover and roast in the oven for 1 hour and 10 minutes. Uncover and roast for an additional 20 minutes until golden brown.
  • Take out the chicken and let it rest. Using a slotted spoon, set aside approximately 16 garlic cloves. Place the baking dish on high heat on the stovetop, simmer for 5-6 minutes to thicken into a sauce, and press the garlic to enhance the flavor. Strain the sauce.
  • Plate the roast chicken alongside the reserved garlic cloves and lightly drizzle with sauce before serving.
