Tyler Florence’s Ultimate Roast Chicken, I Got this off of Food network’s website, and like it soo much i thought I’d post it!! I like the orange idea instead of using lemons! This was on his English cooking episode There were about 3 roast chickens listed, but this one looked and tastes the best to me!!, The title says it all This recipe is amazing probably due to using fresh herbs My family loves it and it makes the house smell great! (I don’t squeeze the oranges over the meat though ), so delicious! i’ve made this a couple of times and it’s always awesome sometimes i will sub dried for fresh herbs, otherwise we do it as is absolutely amazing, moist and a unique sauce goes good over mashed potatoes or rice

Remove the Chicken to a Platter and Let Stand For 10 Minutes, So the Juices Settle Back Into the Meat Before Carving. |
