This was AWESOME! I also surrounded the chicken in the roaster with some cubed potatoes that I lightly tossed in a little bit of olive oil, salt and dried thyme. Yum! I can't wait to make this again!

Just delicious! Such an easy recipe as well. We seasoned the lemon slices and garlic with some thyme before putting them under the skin so the flavour of the thyme would mix with the lemon and go right through the breast, and that worked really nicely. This recipe's a keeper!

This was wonderfull for a picnic, love the lemony/garlic flavour. I also stuffed a walla walla quartered onion in the cavity which turned out delicious to eat! and I sprayed the whole bird with veggies spray just before putting it in the oven. I did find I had to cook it for about 1 hour and 10 minutes, actually I did it for the 45 minutes and when I went to cut it up found it quite pink near the bone, so cut it up and returned it to the oven for another 20 minutes, perfect. Thanks for sharing I will doit again.
