Rinse the Chicken and Pat Dry. Rub the Chicken Inside and Out With the Salt and Pepper. Using Your Fingers and Starting at the Cavity, Gently Separate the Skin from the Breast Meat, Reaching as Far Back Toward the Neck and as Close to the Thighs as Possible to Create a Pocket. Be Careful not to Tear the Skin. Slip the Garlic Slices Between the Skin and the Meat, Spreading Them Evenly Over the Breast. Place the Chicken, Breast Side Up, on a Rack in a Roasting Pan. Add the Stock to the Pan. |
