Ultimate Roast Chicken Recipe by The Mensch Chefs

Features:
    Cuisine:

      This is classic Jewish style roast chicken from "The Mensch Chef" cookbook by Mitchell Davis. Mensch is a Yiddish word that is defined in the book's glossary as : "a nice guy, a generous soul, me. Someone who makes a nice meal and gives you the leftovers to take home." My family's roast chicken is just like this one except we put an apple and an onion in the bird's cavity and I make a paste out of the spices with oil and rub it all over the bird. Enjoy! http://www.amazon.com/Mensch-Chef-Delicious-Jewish-Oxymoron/dp/0609807811
