The whole family agreed on 4 starts out of 5 for tonight. This is a must-make, easy meal that will give you a lot of comfort!! I have to admit that my roasted chicken doesn't look nearly as pretty as the one in the cookbook, but it sure was tasty!
This took me about 30 minutes to prepare (cutting up the veggies, mincing garlic and stuff to put on and inside the chicken, etc.). After I put it in the oven, all I had to do was wait. I added a bit more olive oil to the veggies...it called for half a tablespoon. I probably doubled that. I also made 2 potatoes instead of 1 and only used 1 onion instead of 2. Jason wanted me to make carrots than I did. I will next time. The meat came out super flavorful and moist. The combination of lemon zest, garlic, and rosemary was a yummy mix!!
Now for the nitty gritty:
Madeline - "I don't like the carrots, but the rest is really good."
Jason - "The chicken is the best part. This is good."
Riley - She ate a bit but not much.
Erin - Yum! I felt like a professional cook making a golden, roasted chicken.

ReplyDeleteI love rosemary with chicken but wonder what you do with the rest of the cvhicken when there is only one eating? I might try it with chicken pieces instead of a whole chicken. I will let you know what I try.
