Ingredients

  • 1 whole roasting chicken (3 1/2 - 4 1/2 pounds/1.5-2 kg)
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 pound (500 g) baby/mini Yukon Gold potatoes
  • 4 whole peeled carrots, chopped
  • 1 whole lemon (reserve zest)
  • 4 tablespoons room temperature butter
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme

    Clean and dry chicken. Zest lemon and reserve. Quarter lemon, and place in the cavity. Place chicken on top of vegetables.
