Directions
Roasted Halved Chicken With Garlic-Herb Paste, This is a VERY easy way to make chicken, comes out moist and delicious! The fresh rosemary and zest of the lemon really give it a nice Spring taste use more garlic, 4 to 5 cloves I also put a bit of the paste under the skin The recipe calls for 2 cast iron skillets, but If you don’t have a second cast iron skillet, use a regular pan and weigh it down with 2 heavy cans I also have my butcher take out the backbone for me (lazy me LOL) Time does not include marinading time Adapted from Food Network, Cooking for Real, Sunny Anderson , In honor of this amazing recipe recommended in Best of 2010, I’m spending the rest of my day in reverent silence
